Mexico City, Mexico

What is life like as an expat in your area?

Answer this Question

When we asked people living abroad what life is like in their areas and how people spend their time, they said...

"People tend to work long hours during the week, not much on the weekends which is generally reserved for families. If you have kids you will be invited to tons of birthday parties, parents are expected to attend, not just drop the kids off. The parties are quite extravagant compared to the US," mentioned another expat when asked about moving to Mexico City, Mexico.

"Life for expats and digital nomads in Mexico City is vibrant and exciting. The city is full of culture, art, and history, and there are plenty of opportunities to explore and experience the local culture. The cost of living is relatively low, making it an attractive destination for those looking to live and work abroad. The city is also well-connected, with excellent public transportation and a wide range of international flights. There are plenty of coworking spaces, cafes, and restaurants to choose from, making it easy to stay connected and productive. The city is also home to a diverse and welcoming expat community, making it easy to make friends and build a social network," commented one expat who made the move to Mexico City, Mexico.
