What do I need to know before moving to Mexico City?

Answer this Question

When we asked people what advice they would give someone preparing to move to Mexico City, they said...

"Mexico City is a vibrant and exciting place to live, but expats should prepare themselves for living in a lower-cost of living than other popular expat destinations. Familiarizing yourself with the local language (Spanish) and culture is essential for a smooth transition to expat life. It's important to research the different neighbourhoods and understand the security situation so you can find the safest place to live. In addition, it's essential to look into reliable banking and medical resources to ensure you're well taken care of for the entirety of your stay. Additionally, it's wise to build a social circle of other expats to provide support and advice throughout your relocation," said another expat in Mexico City, Mexico.

"If you are lucky enough to have your company pay for a Relocation company you wont have any problems since they know very well were you should live. But if this is not the case, I recommend you get advice from someone in your company to recommend areas close to work that meet your budget. Once you know the names of the areas you can then serach on the local newspapers for apartments," wrote a member who made the move to Mexico City, Mexico.
