Ground floor, one storey home rentals by jazzpaz

Are there *any* ground floor, one story homes (houses, condos, apartments, duplexes, townhouses, etc?) for rent in Mexico? Other than the small border towns near Texas l can't find anything for an old woman who can't climb stairs.

Chilangolite

@jazzpaz Yes, there are lots of them. I have a ground floor house in Los Mochi's. Everywhere I have been I've seen them. You need to get out and look for them. Read More
