My wife and I are exploring moving to Mexico. We have visited San Miguel and Ajijic and were not sure how we felt about all the expats. We then visited Cuernavaca and didn't find any expats. Indeed we didn't even see any other gringos in the week we were there. So that is too far to the other end of the spectrum.
We are looking to visit Merida this winter and feel out that area a bit. Can anyone tell us about their experiences living in either city? Is there a expat community of any sort in Merida? What about the overall livability of the city- we are more inclined to a city because of the cultural amenities.
I read a post a few months ago from a woman who moved there from SMA but cannot find it now.
Any insights from anyone would be much appreciated. Also any suggestions of other central Mexico cities that we ought to be considering are also most welcome.
