My husband and I lived in Sonora, MX for over 10 years and joined the Mexican Healthcare system, IMSS. We did not go through the consulate. We went to the regional IMSS office with a local friend and worked directly with them. It required a couple of trips and the proper paperwork but was fairly simple. Each year we returned to the same office and renewed our insurance and payed our annual premium. It did not matter that we were temporary or permanent residents.

Bordertowns are dangerous, including in the US. But to use a bordertown to paint an entire country is not fair. I lived 6 hours south on the Sea of Cortez for over 10 years and it was magical. My communities and neighbors were all Mexican citizens and they shared your same fear...but I never saw or encountered a personal experience. Beautiful Country, warm and inviting people and posts like yours and the US National media are very mi's leading.
