My wife is from Mexico so we can buy coastal land there.
We have our eye on a beautiful place down near Veracruz. For a pittance you can live like royalty there. I will have a beach front home and, if you know how to do it, you can own guns in Mexico — where they have a heavily implied castle law.
No reason for me NOT to retire there.
I visited Veracruz long ago, but recently read an article that Veracruz the city and Veracruz the state have been almost irretrievably lost to gangs and corruption.
