Guanajuato Retirement

[Wade K]

Turned out that "House Hunters International" was phony. Many of the couples weren't even couples, everything was staged for the show. I've lived and worked in several places on the Mexican border, have seen impoverished colonias. Not expecting a lot, but would like a nice atmosphere like Guanajuato appears to have. Going to Nicaragua is just about saving money until SS starts, but I've talked to people living there who seem happy with it. Researching living overseas has been a hobby for close to 20 years and it seems there are fewer places these days that are truly affordable. I hope Guanajuato never becomes a San Miguel, but nicer places seem to always get "discovered" and prices go up accordingly. Maybe an out of the way city in Northern Nicaragua is the answer. A lot of issues there, keeps the expat population low.
