Want to Retire in Mexico? Check Out Our FREE Retire in Mexico Guide bit.ly/3Zg25tg Are you thinking about living in Ajijic but finding that the rentals are too high or out of your budget? Then we think you should look into Jocotepec!
#jocotepec is on the west side of the lake in #lakechapala and has a population of about 15,000. With the same beautiful weather as Ajijic, has gorgeous lake views, and rentals here tend to be about 1/2 the cost!
The vibe of Jocotepec is very laid back, but living in Jocotepec doesn't mean it is boring. There are cultural events, a gorgeous Malecon with views of the lake and water sports, a variety of shopping options, and great year-round weather, so you can be outdoors any day of the year. And it is only a 15-minute drive to Ajijic and only a 45-minute drive to the Guadalajara international airport.
We think living in Jocotepec can be a best-kept secret. Rentals in Joco, as the locals call it, start at just $10,000 pesos a month for a nice furnished 2 bed 2 bath house. That's about $500 USD a month. And because the Lake Chapala area weather is so temperate year-round, you won't need air conditioning or heating here. Most rentals include all utilities, but in case yours doesn't, you can expect to pay about $50 USD or less every 2 months.
We know several people living in Jocotepec on less than $1000 USD a month, including their rent, utilities, groceries, and even house cleaning once or twice a month. And if you have a higher monthly budget, you can expect your income to go a lot further and afford you a nicer rental, more services, and things like that.
We encourage you to visit Jocotepec and see how your life can improve when living in Mexico! We highly recommend a private relocation tour if you don't want to worry about renting a car, knowing how to get around, or worrying about who you can trust.
Our Mexico relocation tour guides provide their own transportation and are locals to the area. So you can get the pros and cons of living in Jocotepec or any surrounding Lake Chapala town. All you have to do is sit back, relax, have fun, and learn.
