Pachuca
Brought:
1. Lots of foods that i cant find here (ie pudding mixes, creamed corn, reeses, brown sugar, cheezits, sunflower seeds)
2.my shades of makeup (i'm very pale, and i have been unable to find my color of foundation anywhere here.)
In my opinion, the best zone to live in (in regards to safety) is San Javier. I have also lived in Real de la Plata, and found it was a pretty quiet neighborhood as well.
i live in a small house (2 bedrooms, 1 bath) in a quiet neighborhood. it's not a gated neighborhood, but there are security guards that stay 24/7. i actually dont know any other expats, but i've seen a few that live in San Javier (the colonia where i live).
i found the house im renting in the newspaper
i pay 2500 pesos monthly for my house (roughly $230 US), and my water bill is about 5 dollars a month. I pay light every two months and its about 5 dollars as well. i really odnt know the average housing cost here, but, at least for me, its much cheaper than the US.
