[Dlachance]

I'm Canadian, but can't move back even if I wanted to since I'm enlisted. If I was not, I would love to, it is beautiful!

You read a lot about people wnating to move on this site . To some other country . Id like to have a nice spot on some beautiful clear water beach . I know they are available in other places besides the standard tourist traps . But where ? What country has places like that, that you dont worry about being murdered in you sleep for the stuff in the house ?

Is that estimation total cost of living or just housing cost? just curious.

My mom has lived south of Guadalajara for over 10 years now. It's not like it used to be. The only thing really cheap about Mexico is the property taxes. She has a really nice 2800 sq. ft. place, and the taxes are less than $150 a year. Health care is a joke, and if you don't have cash, they will let you die in the street. There's no insurance to speak of, and no loans for houses. You pay cash. If you want to live in a hut with dirt floors, eat nothing but beans and tortilla's, and drink bad water, you can live there cheap.

You can live well in cozumel for 800-1000/mon!
Retirement baby!,

I understand completely; I too have a fallback in mind just in case. Every avenue must be covered; especially when you have a child to look after.

That's the thing. Anyone who doesn't plan for worse case scenarios are fools

[LANTIRN]

That's why I haven't moved. Texas is home and I love the US, but in the course of human events...

Yeah, their gun laws are nuts. You can't have them in the home, they have to be registered and left at a gun range.

Odd; I thought I read you could have them at home if you had a proper safe. I must have been reading about another country, I guess. Not a place I would want to live, then, but to each their own I suppose.

[Forever_frost]

Just remember one thing; I seem to remember gun laws in NZ being stricter than the US but not as bad as the UK or Japan. If I recall, Frost, you do not own any guns so it would not be a deal breaker for you, but just keep that in mind as any government who restricts arms ownership too severely usually restricts other aspects of your life as well. Just something to think about.

You would be an emigrant from the US, and I doubt you'd have to give your citizenship up to do it. Hold tight, let me google.

Edit: If your wife is a kiwi, you should be good to go.

I'd have to live there for a year before I was a citizen and things are outrageously expensive but it's a fallback position
