Here's why there will never be a better time in your lifetime to start a new life in México…

Have you entertained the thought of living the good life in Baja California? Heed my words: There has never been an easier... more lucrative...or a more exciting time to be here.

In fact, there's never been a better time in your lifetimeto start a new life in Mexico. 

Despite of what you think you might know about this huge and diverse country (keep reading, I'm going to dispel some of the most common myths), there has never been a better time to consider a move here. 

That's because, right now, three critical factors have come together in a way they rarely do.

Hi, my name is Victor Loza, my wife, Alma, and I have been living in Mexico for over seven years now. And I can say, with confidence: I've never seen the vast opportunities to purchase amazing deals...to live so well for so little...

This year marks the 20th anniversary of Fiestas de la Vendimia. You know, the two-and-a-half-week harvest festival held between the first Friday and the third Sunday in August that combines visits to state-of-the-art wineries, Italian tenors, alternative-style circuses, Kafkaesque plays, mime, modern dance and performance art?

Not ringing a bell? Valle de Guadalupe—the 14-mile region about 90 minutes south of San Diego and four hours from Los Angeles—is arguably Mexico’s premier artisanal wine–growing region. The valley and the nearby city of Ensenada are where the majority of the fiestas take place, bookended by the Muestra del Vino—showcase of wines—and the Concurso de Paellas, an über-paella contest featuring more than 80 equipos, or teams, making every conceivable incarnation of the dish. Gargantuan pans filled with seafood, rabbit, sausage and cordonices—valley game hens—fill the air with heavenly aromas. But don’t get too excited. Paella tickets are long gone at this point. We’ll get to that later.

"Are you worried about rising health-care costs in the United States? Do you know you can potentially save a fortune by crossing the border to Mexico," the cost for health care in Mexico costs 50 to 75 percent lower than what you pay in the States. These are across the board savings – it does include doctors' and dentists' visits, lab tests, surgeries, even some medical devices and prosthetics.

"To get these savings you don't have to cut back on quality, either. Health care in Mexico is excellent if nor remarkable. Medical Universities in Guadalajara are just as good as any others in the world -- in fact, many foreigners come to Guadalajara to study. In addition, many Mexican doctors do post-graduate work in the United States or in Europe.

About 7-and-a-half years ago, I sat where you sit now, dreaming of a new life on a beach town. Back then, I'd been dreaming for years. My employer at the time gave me, finally, a deadline for making a move when he suggested I relocate from Los Angeles to San Diego, California, and then to Ensenada, Baja California Mexico to open a pilot communication earth station for satellite internet for the company.

I am thankful for this, for, had I not been handed this opportunity I probably will never had the chance to know that a cozy little town lay just south of U.S. – Mexico border, if it wasn’t for that I might still be in Los Angeles dreaming and fantasizing about leaving on the beach, instead of living on a perpetual vacation in Rosarito Beach.

From the insulated safety of Baja's luxurious seaside gated communities, American expatriates say reports of kidnappings and violent drug cartels seem a world away.Reporting from Rosarito Beach, Mexico - Bob and Carol Dawson love living in Baja California, but the region's violent reputation has put them on the defensive. They have been called delusional and reckless -- all because they choose to live in an oceanfront gated community about 30 or 40 miles and a world away from the U.S. border.
