If you ever considered retiring in Mexico, and we ARE, this is the book. It gives US and Canadian citizen the right information, in an easy to read and understand format.

You will find excellent suggestions on where to live, what to expect and how to deal with Mexican immigration laws. Our experience is limited to Lake Chapala area, but the information in the book are accurate and up to date for that region.

I only gave 4 stars as I felt the book could cover a bit more about Mexican life style. I know there are other books on the topic, but it would have been nice to cover some here too.

Mexico is changing rapidly. I strongly suggest that you try buying the most recent edition on any Mexican books.
