Hi
I am coming to MERIDA for few months to teach english in one of the private schools. Is there anything I should know about living and moving around Merida? I may be visiting places alone at the beginning. I would like to see Merida and visit Progreso of course. Is it really safe there?

Thank you very much for your tips and comments.

Alina

The most important advice I can give you is to make certain any rental you choose has an air conditioner in your bedroom and fans in other rooms. This is a tropical climate and we are now into summer weather.
This is a FABULOUS city with lots of expats from Canada, U.S. and Europe. The centro district is where all the action is and it is packed with cultural events daily and nightly...Try not to rent too far South of the centro. There is an English Language Library, live theater, symphony, fabulous restaurants, churches galore, parks in every neighborhood and, of course, the zocolo. Not to bore other readers, you can feel free to contact me with a private message for any future questions. As for safety...it's perfectly wonderful! Take off your "worry cap" and enjoy, enjoy!.

Merida and Yucatan is the safest state in Mexico, i have lived here since 2008 and have never had a problem.
if you looking for a rental, try local papers 1st and or vivastreet where you can find apartments at mexico prices you should not be paying more than 4,000 pesos a month for a rental. if you have any questions please dont hesitate to contact me. Saludos and welcome to Merida
