When we start to think about retirement, many people dream of moving to another city, town, or even a different country. Perhaps they had always dreamed of moving abroad, but their job kept them from doing so.

For many North Americans, Mexico is an ideal place to retire. It has year-round warm weather, close proximity to the U.S. and Canada, lower cost of living, good healthcare, and is safe depending on where you decide to live. Over the last decade, Puerto Vallarta has become not only a very popular tourist destination but also an ideal retirement spot for thousands of retirees.

Puerto Vallarta is nestled between the Sierra Madre mountains and Banderas Bay. It is the only colonial port town in all of Mexico. They have a robust healthcare system, safe for foreigners, infrastructure to handle the influx of foreigners, plenty of outdoor (and indoor) activities, incredible beaches, friendly communities, and great year-round weather (though it can admittedly get very hot and humid during the summer months).

In this episode, real estate agent Taniel Chemsian talks about why you might want to consider retiring to Puerto Vallarta, Mexico. He shares how the real estate market has changed over the last 2 years, what neighborhoods are ideal to live in, and what makes Puerto Vallarta a special place to live.
