Hello marina. My wife, and I have been enjoying your videos for years now. On the t, v, my son just told me I can leave you a comment on my phone. God bless you for all of your videos. You are part of the reason why we moved to Mexico 2 years ago. We really appreciate what you doing. God bless you.
Wow, thank you
I so want to be there! I am recovering from a stroke and learned of some places in Mexico. I appreciate your channel.
Please make sure wherever you go that you check out their medical services to make sure they are top notch. That's the MOST important thing you can do and yet the LEAST thing people think about. Get well soon!
Nice area of the world. Merida as well. Better healthcare then Canada by a long shot
Thanks for the great video. Another great town in Mexico to check out. I like what you say about walking. Since living for 2 years in Zona Romantica, Puerto Vallarta and now near Centro in Chapala, I have lost 30 pounds just by walking everywhere and eating a better diet.
That is awesome!
👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
These videos you make are excellent. The information is good and practical, the pace of delivery is good, and your speaking is articulate and pleasant. Cheers!
Thank you for all the excellent, in depth effort that you put into your videos. Our interest was more on the pacific side but there’s something about Progreso that I’m really in love with. Cheers!
A lot of great information for living in Progreso or Mexico in general. Gracias.
Gracias, siempre muy detallado su contenido.
So many wonderful Mexican cities, and so little time. I should have retired MUCH earlier!
Anothet, great video, and thanks for the excellent 411 on Merida. Gracias Mariana!
@Mexico Relocation Guide....LOVED, LOVED, LOVED THIS!!! THANK YOU SO MUCH for adding the text of the areas/names you mention in the video!!! THIS is SO HELPFUL to SEE how these places are spelled.
PLEASE CONTINUE TO DO THIS IN VIDEO'S GOING FORWARD. IT is very helpful. Now I can start leaning the pronunciation of things
Glad you liked it. All my videos have the local pronunciation of towns and cities in Mexico. Except for Mexico- I say it like an American would 😊
Check them out

You have a very pleasant voice to listen to.
Great video!! thank you very much. I have been to Merida and Progreso and I fell in love with Yucatán, I appreciate very much your tips. Thanks!!
one of my favorite restaurants is off the boardwalk in Progresso. I honestly cannot remember the name - but it is all decked out in Pink and you really can't miss it. It's more high-end and the service is excellent and the food is delicious. Yum!
Crabster.. due in summer they serve local crab hands.
Loved this video Mariana. Thank you❤
Glad you liked it!!
We live north of Merida and loved this video. You covered a lot in this video and it was well done. We tell people all the time, most people work hard year round to have one or two weeks in a place like this. We feel thankful and lucky to be here. Enjoyed the video.
Thanks for watching 💕
After watching this, I'm fearing my American standards are too high for here. I'm so disappointed in myself because we've been discussing traveling there and considering whether it was feasible to semi-retire. But everything seems so old. 😢
If you need your American life in Mexico, you may only want to live in the big cities like Cancun, Puerto Vallarta, Mexico City, Queretaro etc
Very informative and helpful 😊
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you
Thanks for sharing such a great gideo on Progreso. Question: do they have bilingual primary schools there? What is the usual cost? In case you have that info 😊
Marina, thanks for this video. Have you or can you do a video on Coastal places that are close to medical facilities that support Veterans/VA healthcare - Tricare etc?
You need to ask the VA or Tricare about support out of country.
I live in Progreso and this video is recent and very good. We very rarely use our air conditioning, but September of this year was horribly hot and humid. Your estimate for water is way too high. I don't know anyone who pays more than 100 pesos every two months and many pay nothing as they have only wells and no city water at all. Your estimate of 400 pesos from Merida to Progreso is correct if you take a taxi. The Autoprogreso bus is much more economical at 23 pesos and is comfortable and air conditioned. Good job on this video - Anne
All information is verified before posting and we gave a few ranges on prices that are actually available. 😊
Any recommendations on Spanish language schools ? I was thinking studying Spanish in difficult areas may give a better feel for a place then just traveling through.. also would give a base to work from, to explore areas around Mexico
Perfecto, but any surf breaks ?
The two salad dishes, we saw in this video, how would they cost? They looked great and healthy.
Nothing to do at night. It’s good if you are 80
Not even if you're 80. 2000 plus dollars for a 2 bd, 2 bth, and notta thing to do but watch the tide go up and down.
Sounds like a good business opportunity be the only late spot open 😂
@@domingodelgado3944 now, that's what I call, progress-o! 😆
OBVIO ES UNA CIUDAD, TRANQUILA NO ES LAS Vegas😂😂
Hello Mariana, just finding your video here about Progresso and comments about real estate agents. I’ve been in Puerto Escondido now for almost a week and have asked several times on the website for assistance finding a real estate agent or someone that could help me with long-term rental here in Puerto Escondido with no luck.
You have mentioned that there is a list on the site with real estate agents and their locations I can’t find it
I’m in Puerto Escondido for about another week and would really like to connect with a couple of agents that could help me find long-term rentals in the near future
Water is potable in Mexico depending the state city or town
Water is not potable across Mexico. There are some neighborhoods and developments that do it for their residents but not by the municipal government
@@MexicoRelocationGuide I don't know where you grew up. But I grew up in Monterrey and I drank tap water my whole life and the same happens with most of the inhabitants in the city
Incorrect
Good for you- you got lucky or your house had some filtration system. My half of my dad's family lives in Monterrey. They all buy jugs of water. No one drinks the tap
So tempting 😂😂😂😂❤
Hello. I was wondering if you are going to put out a video on the new financial solvency requirements for 2024? Thanks
I just sent out an email about that this morning. If you’re on my newsletter it’s in your inbox. If not sign up here

How about safety? I have read Merida is the safest city, which is on the Yucatan peninsula too.
Yucatan is the safest state in Mexico
Beach destinations are not for me, but they are so beautiful that I enjoy all of the videos!
Glad you like them!
Why not 😮😮
@@dennynisevic7848 Too hot and humid. Nice for a visit but not a place to live.
Suena interesante Progreso Merida,pero estoy indeciso si irme para Tulum o para Progreso o para Cancun...
try out both and then decide 😉
Does the relocation guide have people that would meet up with me and drive my car over the border like Texas?
Hi Thomas. Yes! We have private drivers that can meet you in the USA and drive your car to mexico with you
HelloMariana! 😊 do you have any videos on areas in Mexico which are pet friendly? ThankYou 🌹
Hi! There isn't a single city in Mexico that I would consider not pet friendly :) All cities are pet friendly. It all depends on the type of house you rent and whether you need a backyard or not. That might be the challenge in some of the larger cities like CDMX Guadalajara, Merida or Queretaro
@@MexicoRelocationGuide ThankYou 🌹BlessedBe
much more expensive that I expected, it s equal to rental price in Canada
Rents are stupid high, and buying is getting like 10/12% higher year over year. Mexican real estate is getting expensive. Still some good deals relative to Canadian prices but maybe check out other latin American destinations for better deals.
Great videos you make. I have to say progresso will be my last last last place in Mexico to live. It has nothing to offer. Nada .
What is average rent for a 2 bedroom house?
Marina great video AS ALL YOUR VIDEOS ‼️
👍👍👍👍👍
Question❓
Can you SHARE WITH ME the contacts of good facilitators in mexico that can help me with 🇲🇽 RESIDENCE PROCESS.
PREFERABLY in Guadalajara or ANY other CLOSER state to Guadalajara ❓
OR NOT I CAN APPLY AT ANY 🇲🇽 STATE IF NECESSARY AND ALWAYS MOVE TO GUADALAJARA.
I just need somone that will commit to help me right.
THANKS 🙏
Hello. Yes of course my friend. All of our recommended contacts are in our complete Mexico Relocation Guide
When you buy the guide you get instant access to my directory of contacts

I’m 71 live in Playa del Carmen...when I’m 80 Huatulco or Progresso
We spent 6 months in Merida and loved it...Progresso just seemed dull to us...nice beach bit just a bit boring
Progreso can be a bit small for some people. Thanks for watching
What is the job market like in Progreso and Merida? I don't have an online job.
We wouldn't recommend moving to Mexico without a source of income. Finding jobs locally (although not impossible) is very limiting and the incomes in Mexico are about 1/5th of what they are north of the border.
If it’s rain in forecast, does it rain all day or just hrs??
It does not rain often here.
400 peso to get from merida to progresso? Jeez I remember paying as little as 190 each way a year ago.
17,000 pesos is over £700 pound sterling or about $1,000 Dollars the currency will only change by a few pounds or dollrs. They are ridiculous it's the same price in UK. prices.
Yea the expats will do that
Does Progreso have the sargassum seaweed?
We currently are living here in Progreso and have not noticed any sargassum on the beaches. Being that it is on the Gulf, we think that greatly reduces the potential for that to occur.
It did for at least a couple of years before covid, but only occasionally and not very much. Not sure about after that. For the most part it is a non issue, and there are Canadians and Americans who winter there and swim in the ocean daily.
At this time we don't get sargassum, just seaweed. Two different beasts.
I really think Mexico does not want expats anymore. Upping monthly income to $3500 per month is insane! Pass, I will look at Panama or Costa Rica.
Unfortunately they are higher than ever. But even with these high income requirements, Mexico is seeing more residency applicants than ever before.
@geoffspeed Obviously you've missed the point, not many expats have $3500 coming in. And why does the government require to have this much when others living there do not make this much. Enjoy your stay there.
With how the money needed in the bank AND what they want you to make a year it's getting impossible unless you're "well off". We could live great there with just the money from selling the house / land and my disability, BUT every year it gets more expensive to just get there, even if my wife and I wouldn't be a drag on the economy there...
It's sad, it was both of our dreams, just not rich enough to live cheaper IF that makes sense..? 😕
Excelentes videos, me gustaría que también estuvieran en Español, ya que también los Mexicanos, buscamos donde retirarnos. Gracias
Gracias! Entiendo. Si gustas podrías poner los subtítulos en Español 😀
I spoke to mexicans in Montreal. They said the cost of living is already comporsble.
not sure who they are or what their cost of living is. It can be comparable if they are spending a lot. but Guarantee if they are spending a lot, they are living way better than in Montreal.
@@MexicoRelocationGuide Not what they seemed to think.
Have been here for 14 years, getting worst the last 4 years , will be hell like cancun etc etc , nice to hell , thing seriously to leave , prices are to hight ,× by 4 for no reason , don,t listen the bullshit Luke all
Yes the pass was really better saw people spend 72 pesos and a little be pissed off😂😂, peace , don't killed le messager I 75 and happy to live 🇨🇵🇺🇲🇲🇽 that's just me !.....
Went there on a cruise recently and was not impressed. In no hurry to go back.
Sounds like it's over $1,000 a month... just like the U.S.
I’m looking at beach homes in Progresso, y’all need to quit talking about it and trying to ruin my winter home! lol 😅
Haha :)
Unfortunately, the ocean levels in Progreso and other beaches are increasing so fast. According to NASA, a vast part of the Yucatan Peninsula will disappear eventually.
Way to expensive
There are much cheaper rentals ....Just do your homework people.
Yes there are. We feel we have a good overview of some of the ranges but yes there are more affordable rentals
remember to retire in mexico you must prove $2700 USD monthly income. lol...even though many locals only earn $12 to $20 per DAY. if i had that much money i certainly wouldnt be moving to mexico. lol
actually the income requirements for residency just went up. The lowest amount you have to prove in income is $3500 usd a month
@@MexicoRelocationGuide wow thats bizarre. I think cosat rica and panama is only $1000 USD. lol
Yup! Panama is far easier to get residency on economic solvency these days if you have retirement or a guaranteed income
