Question
Why did you move from L.C. area to Manzanillo as I am looking to move to the L.C. area? Thank you,
Howard
Hi Howard, I can give you a one word answer DIVORCE. It was not my first choice. We had bought the condo on the coast as an escape from the "silly" season Lakeside and January when it can get quite cold Lakeside.
There are a lot of NOB types that live all year long on the Pacific Coast, but I cannot take the heat nor the humidity. I don't know how they can stand it. And so far this year I have lost my desktop Dell computer, my microwave oven and my satellite receiver to salt air corrosion.
I spend summers inland Lakeside.

I lived full time in the Chapala-Ajijic area for 7 years, and other areas 5 years. During that time I provided information (health care, working papers, immigration, driving, cost of living, insurance, culture, divorce in Mexico, trusts vs direct deed,etc) to help people make the decision about whether the area was right for them, either full or part-time. I live legally in Mexico.
