GOT BAJA?

Living or retiring in Baja Mexico is not just for seniors anymore!
Pacific Coast, Punta Banda Peninsula, Northern Baja Mexico
THIS IS MY BACKYARD
I live here full time year round, on less than $500/month income.
Read my story.
If you are interested in learning more about relaxed casual Baja living from people that already live here, and have for many years, you have come to the right place. Read about our funny - and some not so funny experiences. Learn firsthand what it really takes to live or retire here through information gathered from many knowledgeable and friendly Baja lovers.
This site is always a work in progress but there is enough information already here to keep you occupied all week…
Here’s the way it works: I pay no taxes to the U.S. because I have no ties there anymore. I own nothing there, nor have any assets whatsoever in the U.S…. Mexico is my new home. I receive no Social Security income, dividends, disabilities, inheritance, insurance or pensions.
I dont feel like I am being “unpatriotic” at all. I simply could not afford to live in the U.S anymore. (read our story in another post) I still have family there and visit quite often or vica versa. And yes, crossing the border in Tijuana is easy and safe, I’ve done it many times without incident.
This house (right) which is fully paid for, was purchased for very little (fractions) compared to a similar home in the U.S, and is perched on the cliffs of the Pacific ocean. During certain times of the year, the owners can see migrating gray whales swim past the house on their way south to breed. Dolphins play in front of the windows. Pelicans swoop down over the deck to catch fresh fish. Seals bellow on the rocks below. They can watch the most incredible sunsets at dusk. The sounds of crashing waves below lulls them to sleep every night. Turquoise water beyond the house and as far as the eye can see…
They have complete and total privacy. Most communities are gated and secure. (note: there are exceptions to this rule) The cost of living in Baja is amazingly far less than you would expect.
The point is, if you are not yet retired, and you don’t have a lot of money, you can still make life happen in Baja. The main thing is if your house is paid for, you will be able to relax and enjoy your life in a way that could not be possible in the United States.
I know alot of you are shaking your heads in disbelief. Hard to imagine why anyone would just up and move to Baja. For us, there were no other options. We did it, and it’s the best thing we ever did! 5 years into it and we are still finding new things to love about this beautiful desert peninsula every single day.
