Numbeo has a nice little chart that you can use to compare the city you currently live in to a city in Mexico. I compared Portland, OR to Mazatlan. It's pretty eye-opening for someone not familiar with Mexican prices.
Housing is one of our biggest expenses. Rent Prices in Mazatlan are 72.26% lower than in Portland, OR.
From reading the two previous articles, you can surmise that healthcare is cheaper. Right now Bev is paying $620 a month for healthcare, and she's healthy, or almost $7,500 a year. (We just received a bill for January that reflects a 6% increase over 2011.) In Mexico the cost for Bev's health insurance would be no higher than $300!
Mexico is calling!
