International Living Community

Can we get emails for some of the individuals in the Community Workshop today for specific questions? In particular Jess Ramesch and Bel Woodhouse.

San Miguel is reportedly also a little more expensive than some other locations in the highlands. My wife and I have a house in Ajijic in the state of Jalisco. It has a very good climate, reportedly one of the best in the world. The temperature range is generally 60-80 degrees, dipping below 60 in the winter months sometimes and above 80 occasionally. But in the summer it is the rainy season which tends to keep it cooler, and it generally rains at night and nice during the day. San Mmiguel is around 6500-7500 feet above sea level and can get a little colder in the winter, whereas Ajijic is about 5000' and doesn't get as cold. It is also on the shores of the largest lake in Mexico, lago de chapla or Lake Chapala which helps moderate the temperature swings. There is a significant expat community and an expat organization by the name of the Lake Chapal Society. IL has written it up some in the past. It has a significant winter season because of the favorable climate during which we rent our house because we live in FL and don't have to escape the winters!
