I love how you used an actual map instead of google maps. It's refreshing.
That’s becoming a lost art.
Peaceful and quiet life is not for everyone, but for those who like it, it is paradise
Please look at all of our videos that have posted below and we also have 200 more videos you can look at.
I very like peace and quiet. How is the area you live in regarding those? Also are ther erunning safe trails nearby? How much for a one or two bedroom with wifi that is good? Thanks.
Streets are full of dogs and their crap. Drugs are a problem here, so is loud music and drinking infill sunrise a regular activity. I have been coming to LLDM since 83 and it is going down hill - too Bad. I liked the days when Peter O'tolle lived here. I used to visit him regularly in Casa Blanca on the hill at the southern end of the beach!
Living in Connecticut. Becoming bitter about not being able to get ahead with insurance, outrageous electric bills and taxes. We live somewhat simply for the US but it's not simple enough to thrive. Thank you for your information and I will keep watching!
Yep, unless you're wealthy, well connected or corrupt, you can't get ahead.
I rate this interview as the BEST interview EVER! To me, it is what I have been looking for for long time. Thank you for your kindness and the gentleman's kindness, his willingness on answering the questions. May God bless you all

All very cheap here. A good doc visit is less than 2 $ . Always warm, no property taxes, no homeless.
No property tax?
What about Social security/medicare and healthcare. I am over 65?
@@hellooutthere8956 no
Bull shit
Property taxes=YES.
Homeless = YES.
what are you talking about?
I fast for 18 - 20 hours
and eat one meal a day in a 24 hour period! Easy! I drink water only coffee in am . No cigarettes or other vices!eggs avacados salads.
@Peter S. ...my tastebuds have changed their minds on a lot of foods I loved and thought they tasted so good! Try it for a year , organic and fresh nutrition!
Jerry and Lori: you have videos for all kinds of people; the ones who can afford a comfortable apartment or house to those like me, who are looking for the lowest prices possible due to our very low income. I appreciate your kindness and your effort

Mr Brown... you're AWESOME. I love the work you do on UA-cam. You help me build my knowledge of the places I visit and intend to visit. I dream of saving enough money to live simply and happily. Peace my friend.
Good vlog. Living that type of life would require a lot of discipline. Yet, it is good to get back to nature. BTW, I also like the visual provided by the map. Keep up the good work, Jerry and Lori!
I LOVE this video because I'm SO interested in permaculture and growing my own food and am planning to retire to somewhere in Mexico.... I just don't know where yet, but Lo de Marcos is definitely on my list! Thank you for doing this video.
No don't come.
@@JosueLopez-id9mz may I ask who gives you the right to say this and why are you saying no ....for this lady not to go there
We travelled through Mexico for a month at the last of 2020. It's such a beautiful country and would be an amazing place to live in. There are definitely places that are more expensive than others, but it is possible to live simply and cheaply there.
We ended up living in Nicaragua during covid due to border closures. Living in a Central American country is an amazing experience and so much cheaper than living in a western country.
Thank you for giving me hope; I want to live in Mexico. I want to live in a warm place and be with warm people. I do not know how to do it.
@A_ DissidenT Learning Spanish helps.
Jerry, you've really stumbled onto a great second career. You're like the Johnny Carson of Mexico travel videos. "........Here's...............Jerry........" Now all you need is to add the golf swing to the opening of every video. I can't thank you guys enough for doing these videos. Please show us more of Mexico's coastline.
I will practice my golf swing before I added it to our videos. What do you think. Thank you for the compliment we appreciate you very much and

This helps me retire at the age of 50 in Latin America. In my understanding is to visit small town about an hr or two from the city center then the prices of rent and cost of living drops from 20% to 40%. I will be backpacking in Mexico in 2018. And do some research in this country. Thank you.

This is valuable information. Thank you!
We’ve been Ajijic for 4 days now. The people are friendly and the lake and mountains are beautiful. I researched Ajijic for 2 months before coming on this short trip. Here are some things that surprised me though none of them are inherently bad. First, the weather has seemed warmer than I expected. I think that’s due to the high humidity, very bright sunshine, and energy required to walk uphill on cobblestone streets. Fortunately we got one of the rare Airbnb’s with air conditioning but it was out our second night here due to a thunderstorm that took out a transformer. Second, we should have planned more activities in advance. Our first full day we stayed busy looking at the small shops between Centro and the Malecon and lucked out finding a bar with awesome live music that started at 4 pm. After that day, we ran out of impromptu entertainment opportunities. For example, the nice massage and facial spa was already booked solid for the next 3 days. Third, though people are friendly here like in Texas where we’re from, making new friends was not as easy as expected. During our previous 8 meals when we were sitting in restaurants around a bunch of other westerners, no one said hi or smiled struck up conversations with us. Only when I initiated the conversation did people respond. This is the same as I’d expect in Texas but I’d heard so many raves about the friendliness in Ajijic, I had unrealistic expectations. Fourth, Uber’s are not plentiful and taxis don’t drive around looking for customers. The taxis seem to congregate in El Centro so it was necessary for us to walk 10 minutes to get a taxi. Fifth, Ajijic downtown is not as clean and organized as Playa del Carmen or Oaxaca. In retrospect, I should have expected this since it’s much smaller. I also realized once here that the property taxes here are minuscule so having thousands of foreigners live here doesn’t generate much money for the local government to make capital improvements. In conclusion, we still enjoyed Ajijic, and hope our insights help others have accurate expectations.
+annette thompson
I was studying the various videos about that region and the lack of services there should be a red flag to Americans with expectations. I expect somone who can not at all afford the states and speaks the local language and is not entirely misplaced in such surroundings would fit. But I note that Americans feel best around others with similar viewpoints so Mexico might be lonesome for all of them eventually. Reason, I suspect, the ones I have met that retired there always vist the states at the first opportnity. If you are already half dead and don't care about entertainment or are fully self reliant, you can make do in that very out of the way region. But perhaps, finding a way to just travel there when you need cheap housing, with an eye to returning when you can, sounds like a strategy I would utilize.
sir I congratulete you for your wisdom in frugality and clean healthy living.....

I would say if you don't have major health problems (anything that could put anyone in bankrupcy) one can live with 10k a year and live a great life honestly.
this guy is living for 5k apparently.
This gives me hope. I'm disabled at 50 and have another 10 years before I can make a move. Good to know I'll have some options when the time comes.

@@Movieman8559 drugs are everywhere but Mexican people is very friendly, food is delicious, and the cost of living is cheaper then USA
sir if you retire with about 1200 dollars a month you can even hire someone down there to help you do your chores at home like cooking for you , cleaning , doing your laundry etc most woman will do it for anywhere from 50 to 100 dollars a week so that means that if you pay even 100 dollars a week thats still only 400 dollars a month for having a maid that cooks for you even go shopping your groceries for you if you can not do it , cleaning your place , doing your laundry and stuff like that i am telling this since you mention you are disable and may need some help or some one to help you , you can afford it and like i said there are people ( women ) that will do it for less than 100 dollars a week paid .
Thank you for sharing this information with the public Jerry and Lori. God bless y'all forever. Now I HAVE hope that I don't have to be homeless in the future as the costs of living continue to skyrocket.
Wonderful and helpful info and you both have such glowing energy, very inspiring

My food budget in Thailand, without owning fruit trees, is about $2.50 a day. As you noted, alcohol can impact a budget severely. Living on a total budget of $400 to $650 is entirely possible in Thailand.
Yep not a good idea to stick to cigarettes and drinks when you're retired - your body, liver, lungs need to recover from the stress. An accommodating woman would be good though.

That gentleman knows how to budget, that is the trouble with most people... He also plats fruits and vegetables and take care of chickens.. It takes working every day keeping up maintenance. How many people do you know want to work hard in their retirement? Do they know how?
It doesn't have to be hard work. I have chickens, I found out I love having them. I use wood chips in the coop, so that needs cleaned only once a year (no smell). The wood chips and chicken poop are piled once a year with lots of water and hot composted, and used in a Ruth Stout garden. No weeding or watering. It doesn't have to be a lot of work, it CAN be fun if done right. Beside, you need to keep moving in retirement to stay healthy.
Awesome brother. We are planning... Thank you very much Sir. Brown
All the best
Great !
Will keep this all in mind when time to retire comes (for my dog)

my brother just retired about 6 months ago, and I have never seen him so happy, he is leaving in a small town in Michoacán, and I've ask him about the violence that we hear here in the USA, he said that there is none, he is so happy, he told me that he spend about 650.00 per month but he had a lady that comes and cooks for him and cleans the house, he retired at 62 and he's leaving a dream, he looks a lot younger then before, I am looking foward to retired there too. thanks for your videos.

Another great video Jerry. This video allows the viewer to see how *low you can go" given different circumstances. In Mexico, the average household net-adjusted disposable income per capita is 13,085 USD a year, compared to the USA average of 25,908 USD a year. It's hard not to appreciate the difference in the quality of life available to those more fortunate to make more choices. I'm thankful that I will be playing a role in supporting the Mexican economy when we arrive. :)
Sounds great. I will turn 65 soon and this sounds like its right up my alley. I also have a job that I can take with me as long as I have internet.

We also want warm weather as the winters are horrible here! Love your channel and enjoy that you break down your costs! QUESTION: Is it hard to live permanently in Mexico? We don't want to travel back and forth every 6 months! Love your channel! ~ Deb
Come to puerto escondido way cheaper and really nice place low crime
artzology .. India and Philippines is a good option. Mexico is more expensive than what they make you believe, plus is not safe.
Bianca, How is more expensive? Could you please explain what you mean?
artzology try pr or DR
@artzology we are also from Canada (Saskatoon) and developing affordable condos and houses on the beaches in Yucatan state. We are just 45 minutes outside of Merida, an amazing city with so much history and culture, great healthcare etc. One of the lowest cost of living in Mexico also. You can live very well off in Yucatan state. And safest area. We are on Facebook as Caban Condos, feel free to contact with any questions.
Life is Math. 1 Youth is Addition i.e. you are constantly adding new things and experiences to yourself
2 Teenage Years is Subtraction i.e. You are forced to drop your childish happy ways and you must conform to society by removing your desires for freedom etc
3 Adult years is Multiplication. You begin to gather "stuff" , things, cars property, husbands, wives, reputation etc.
4 Old Age and Retirement is division. You divide up all your stuff if you have any wisdom in you at all and you realise you cannot bring any of it with you.
So it's much easier to have little in old age

Oh that is so Appealing to a 68 Year Old living in Tiny Studio really working hard NOT TO COLLECT JUNK. I do have way too much Books...
@@greedyfirstalgorithmlast26 Books are good for you especially since you can read on any electronic device, store them on a flash drive and carry small paperback books anywhere.
Many in Mexico don’t need refrigerators because they go to the store or market every morning to buy fresh food to cook later. That’s how my grandma did it and so did the people in the village. The food tasted different.
We're back from six weeks traveling. So let's meet up Personally If you're in the Ajijic Lake Chapala Area. The month of April We will meet up At The Peacock Restaurant in Ajijic At 11 AM Every Saturday through April. Lori and I thought it would be a good idea to get together So please join us

Puerto Vallarta is in Jalisco, Lo de Marcos is in a different state, Nayarit actually!
Home Bar In Style Bars for Homes Nayarit is a beautiful state. My father is from Nayarit.
My wife and I have lived in Baja Sur for 12 years. $300/month? Most people could not do that. Here are some more realistic numbers for most people:
It's not as inexpensive here as it is on the Mexican mainland, but our 2 person food budget is around $250 US/month... in the US we spend more than this every week. We eat very healthy food, as much as we want, plenty of variety, plenty of meat and fish... we belong to a grow co-op where we pick our own organically grown produce and tree fruit, year around for $40/month (included in the $250 above). This budget is food and beverage only, excludes alcohol.
We could find a reasonable place to rent for the two of us for around $400/month... simple living but comfortable. Add $75/month (average) for water/sewer/trash/electricity/propane including all the AC we need in the hot & humid months.
Add in our annual vehicle maintenance cost, fuel, insurance, tools & toys, internet, subscriptions, a bit of entertainment & dining out 6-8 times per month, etc... we could get by for $1,200/month with no travel. With travel to the US 2x per year, we spend around $2,000 per month but we live quite well, including maid and gardener.

Lori's birthday party ua-cam.com/video/J3WeP3syJxc/v-deo.html
Hi Jerry, I just watched your video, good job of spelling out all the realistic costs of living typical for most people. Your numbers confirm mine very well, projecting $1,300 US/mo basic living cost with reasonable entertainment and dining allowance for a moderately social couple... add rent and you project $1,700-1,900/mo... this doesn't include alcohol, cigarettes, or travel to the US, maid and/or gardener.
MORE REALISTIC #S: These costs would vary for every person, but for a couple to live here for under $1,000/mo would be a very tight budget not allowing anything for toys, entertainment, hired help, internet or subscriptions, travel or health care.
Mexican families (husband, wife, 2-3 children) frequently manage to live on less than $500/mo, but they live on dirt floors in unfinished shacks made of scavenged materials, with almost no utilities. They maintain their own rickety old vehicles (and frequently walk when the vehicle is inoperable), and paying for food and warmth is a constant losing struggle.
So why do Americans live in Mexico? Quality of life. You cannot live in the US for $2,000/mo with same level of comfort... in the US it would be more like $4,000 or $5,000/mo to live at the same standard and with the same freedoms.
Suggestion: Your video title "Live in Mexico for $300/mo" is misleading. It would be more honest to include a disclaimer in your video info, or append commentary to the video itself.

Retire at 40 ua-cam.com/video/jnAe1lslIWk/v-deo.html
$2:50 is £1.93. In the UK 500g of good durum wheat pasta is 20p (with 100p to the pound). Fifteen eggs costs £1. Bags of ramen noodles are less than 10p. An 800g wholemeal loaf made with proper wholegrain flower is 36p. A kilo - 2.2lbs - of oats is 75p. 355g of broccoli is 36p. 800g of ground beef is about £2.50. A tin of sardines is 34p. I can buy a kg of curry powder for £2.99, and a kg of dry kidney beans for £2.50.
In short, eating 3,000 healthy calories for £1.93 is easy: you can do it for a lot less. Maybe the pound is undervalued, but food has been dirt cheap in the UK for a long time, and there are good reasons to think that Brexit will make it cheaper still.

I thought the money would be the problem but I think it's going to be not knowing what to do with all the time. I think things need to be obligatory or it's too easy not to do them, or certainly that's the case for a lot of people (probably including me).
thanks Craig - I know I can eat for dirt cheap in the USA if I want but was unaware this was possible in the UK - you hit on my main problem : How do I entertain myself for more than a short while in Mexico?
I'm in the UK and I like to think I shop wisely but those prices are like nothing I have seen! 15 eggs for a pound? Granted I only ever buy free-range but that's about half of what even the cheapest supermarkets are charging. I can't comment on the meat and sardines, as a vegetarian, but the cheapest 800gm wholemeal bread is about 55p here. Where on earth are you buying from?
I want to visit
You can live a better life unless you want to be in very rural area in Mexico. You can rent a new studio apt including internet, cable tv plus utilities for $220.00 US monthly in Guanajato, I have done it. Walking distance to the main super market, close to historic downtown. Costco 1/2 hr away in Leon, excellent affordable medical. $600.00 - $700.00 monthly will give you a very nice life and you can afford to eat out.
Thank you for all the great education you are giving us about options for retirement living, Jerry. You're helping a lot of people! I don't think I could totally adopt this gentleman's VERY simple lifestyle, but maybe I can grow a little food and eat more simply.
Thank you for your comment Lori and I appreciate you and thank you for being a subscriber.

Single Women retires in San Miguel
Wow you look very healthy men.
Also you eat very healthy👏
My daughter is married to a young man from a rural part of Bosnia, right on the Una river within walking distance of Croatia. It is also a very affordable and beautiful place to live, and one day they and my grandchildren will inherit the ancestral home and land there.
This video reminds me of that but of course a more tropical version!!
There are many little jewels, little pieces of paradise, scattered around the world. And they are great for those who choose to live simply.
As for myself, I could do without many of the modern luxuries we have come to depend on today, but one thing concerns me as someone over 55, and that is access to healthcare. For many of us that is a necessity, and although I’m not familiar with Mexico, I can tell you that in many countries around the world, especially in these little rural communities, access to healthcare is a huge challenge.
However, if one is in good health and maintains a healthy lifestyle, this is truly ideal !!!!
Thank you, I have subscribed to your channel and hope to see more!!!

Retired and freedom on $1000 ua-cam.com/video/0SQ9HID8dvs/v-deo.html
Jerry, The reason many people do not have enough money to retire on is because most of the people who are retiring now lost their savings, their 401ks, and their homes during the Great Recession of 2008. It's not that they didn't plan ahead.
ps: Editing to add, 2008 was the housing crash.
Angela thank you for your comment. in the years before the housing crash to qualify for a home loan you have to show that you made for times your monthly payment. As an example if your monthly payment was $2000 a month you would have to show that you had an income of $8000 a month to qualify.
But when the housing boom started people could qualify for that same two thousand dollars on month payment and only show that they were making $2000 a month. They call those the liars loans.
The old rule of thumb was one fourth of your monthly income you would be able to afford your house payment. Even so a lot of people we're hoping their home again in value so they took out money ( the equity in their home) but in reality it was a false number so that's how so many people Lost their homes because.
It's sad let so many people we're affected by the big banks.
Thank you for your comment and keep doing what you do it's appreciate all
Jerry Brown Travels i
Well said Angela Siegfried!
you forgot that it was not so much the banks fault, but the people who should not have been given loans in the first place were. Welfare recipients should not have been given loans to buy a house, but they were because of the carp the politicians forced on banks, no money down, no credit checks, any fool should have known that sooner or later the whole house of cards was going to collapse, and it did.
One thing to remember is when your ready to become a full time citizen, our majastrey in our state will Require a particular income level. I believe it's going to be around 1800-2200 monthly. They will not let us be permanent if we don't have that. Otherwise we would retiree early and move asap.

wow great info seen other vids u and lori did
First, thanks for showing the map because it helps me visualize the names. Could I eat on $2.50 per day??? Maybe, but it would only last until I wanted a cold beer. So, let's say it would last until 5:00pm the first day...I failed!!! His food budget might be low, but the nutritional quality is first rate..Eats your fruits and veggies... That beach looked beautiful. 14 months until retirement... Thank you both for allowing me to keep dreaming...

stitchergary .. life here is much much expensive than you think and make you believe.. and not safe. In New York you call for the cops they come and help you. In Mexico don't call the cops you are much better and safer on your own
stitchergary r
Blanca Tobon, Maybe you don't want people to come to Mexico? And I completely understand if that is true.
By the time the police come to help in NY the wait is too long so you are on your own in America. Is your point is that the police in Mexico are corrupt? We have the same problem in America.

Did he retire?
This man must not be on any medications.
With his healthy PERMACULTURE lifestyle I am sure that he was easily weaned off of all medications. Love his diet because I eat pretty much the same way as he does also without alcohol or cigs.
If I had to I could live and live healthy on $2.50 a day. 😊

The music you chose detracts, not adds to this video. The sounds of the background are preferable to your midi style music.
Clover Connections Heartily agree, lol. Too loud and annoying, but I wondered if that was just me being a cranky senior citizen.. :)
I thought you had to prove you make $2,000 minimum per month to live long term in Mexico. In that case, I would think this may be a bit misleading.
If you get a six month visa you don't have to show any money or any income. But you have to cross the border every six months and get a new six month visa. That's what the people do here if they cannot afford the monthly income to live here permanently.
So it's not misleading
You can't gain legal permanent resident status that way.
Great video. Thanks Jerry
Art that was a fun video wasn't it? There's always choices. Did you see this video art

This is very informative
Jerry if you buy a home in Mexico will it give you the right to become a citizen, with out having large amounts in your bank
best to speak with a notary in an area you wish to purchase in
He was working... Didn't you read that part?
So he had lots of money to start with, if he has land and planted all those fruit trees. Also, no mention of transportation. He lives in the country, so must have a car??
I feel like I can reply to this as I know Memo and have been to his place. He doesn't own the land; he lives on it and takes care (and plants) the various trees in exchange for the place. Lo de Marcos is very small and even though Memo lives across the river he walks everywhere... into town etc. In fact, he offers Monday morning walks (for free) that last an hour or so, as well as arranging other tours to local farms etc. Transportation is no problem as a "local" bus goes every hour from here to PV and if you walk a couple blocks to the highway you can pick up a larger (Greyhound type) bus and go anywhere in Mexico. He manages quite well!
public trans in Mexico. No need of car. Motoscoot suffices.
missmayflower It sounded to me like it is not his propety, he is a resident of the "commune-style" living. He said he pays $150./mo. to rent there, and probably has a minimum amount of caretaking he is responsible for, so...
Fantastic information. Thank you for informing the public. This gentleman seems to be very content. : )

Yes you can live on 300 us in Mexico BUT that is poverty level . 300 us a month is what you pay for a low cost cleaning only maid. He can because he is producing his own food. He also is living off grid. Do you really want to live with no electricity or running water. Yes you can live realisticly on 600 us a month. Again it wont be living in Paradise but its very duable. More realistic. You wont be living in a retierment comunity. You will be renting in a low to médium clase área. Important at the end of the interview he casual la says free medical. NOT true. Medical services are cheaper, much cheaper but its is NOT free.
Thank you for your comment
Not free for you, It is free for most working Mexicans. Also all costs are depending on the city and lately if the city is becoming popular among foreigners it will tend to rise prices, remember supply and demand. So if you want to live really cheap you could but it won't be among rich foreigners or Mexicans for any matter. Maids are one of the lowest paid jobs here in Mexico, so I disagree with your estimates a maid can get paid less than 300 in other cities.
Hielo Matic thanks for the info I just wrote a commentary about what happen if you need medical treatment or just your medications

Interesting. A friend went to Costa Rica and found a great house and area but was lost when it came to who to call for services. No 911. No customer service. This guy has solar so no utility company. I can get into the paradise and economy thing but as an o!der person there are concerns.

Streets are full of dogs and their crap. Drugs are a problem here, so is loud music and drinking on the beach until sunrise a regular activity. Almost every family here has been effect by crime. I have been coming to LDM since 1983 and it is going down hill - too Bad. I liked the days when Peter O'tolle lived here in Casa Blanca on the hill at the southern end of the beach!

It's similar in the caribbean islands, Philippines, Ecuador, Colombia, etc. If you are retired or can work from your computer, I suggest you visit one of these countries, cause the writing is on the wall.

Franklin Love the car is that a Porsche? When I was in high school I had a 1955 Porsche coupe it was a lot of fun. But then I get married and had to get a station wagon. There went to Porsche.
Wow lucky you, i could never afford a sports car as a young man this one is a Nissan 2003 360.
