Where should I setup a bank account in Acapulco?
We asked expats in Acapulco what banks they use and there advice about banking. They advised...
"Expats considering retirement in Acapulco should be aware of several key factors. Firstly, it's important to understand the cost of living, which is generally lower than in many Western countries, but can vary depending on lifestyle and location within the city. Healthcare is another crucial consideration. While Mexico has a public healthcare system, many expats choose to use private healthcare, which is still affordable compared to the U.S. It's recommended to have health insurance that covers treatment in Mexico. Safety is a concern for many considering a move to Acapulco. While the city has a reputation for violence, much of this is concentrated in certain areas and does not typically affect tourists or expats. However, it's still important to stay informed about local news and take common-sense precautions. Language can be a barrier for some, as not everyone in Acapulco speaks English. Learning some basic Spanish can greatly enhance your experience and make daily life easier. Understanding the local culture and customs is also important. Mexicans are generally warm and welcoming, but it's respectful to learn about and adhere to local customs. Finally, it's important to understand the immigration process. To retire in Mexico, you'll need to apply for a temporary or permanent resident visa, which requires proof of income or savings. It's recommended to consult with an immigration lawyer to understand the process and requirements," commented one expat who made the move to Acapulco, Mexico.
