Hi everyone. My name is Renee. I am a retired RN in Texas. I'm new to this site and I am just beginning to explore my options of expat-ing to San Miguel. I plan to visit San Miguel in Dec or Jan. with my boyfriend. My question to all of you who already live in San Miguel is this: which Colonia is the safest and offers the most conveniences and access to centre for someone with only about 300,000 to spend on a house? My priority is to have a beautiful home in an area that allows me to meet lots of new people and develop true friendships and become part of the community in San Miguel. I don't want to be so far out of the city center that I miss the opportunity to be immersed in the day to day life and culture of the town. Or is this not an issue? Any and all insights from the current residents are welcome. Please educate me. It will help me know how to explore on my visit there. Thank you in advance and I hope that I get to meet some of you one day.
