This is a good beginner's book on expatriating to Mexico. It covers the basic questions of "how to do it". However, it does not address issues that so vex the new expat--particularly new AMERICAN expats. This is not a slam against Americans. It is that we are not as accustomed to a foreign country as are Europeans and need to know what to REALLY expect when moving to another country. A good book but doesn't cover the picadillos of living in Mexico. Doug Bower Author--The Plain Truth about Living in Mexico

I was very pleased with this book as it really answered most of my questions about moving to Mexico. I think the authors' perspectives on life in Mexico seemed to be very honest and accurate since they revealed both the good and bad aspects about living south of the border. This book was informative and enjoyable to read. I was inspired!
This is the original and best of the guidebooks

I disagree with the reviewer's statement that there are no substantial differences being reported over an 11 year period. Because of our interest in visiting and living in Mexico, I own three editions (including the 1988 and the 1999 copies). I've found each edition extremely comprehensive and appreciate the updated material provided in each. Like any guidebook, Choose Mexico provides comprehensive information about living, retiring, and doing business in Mexico. We have used it extensively during our yearly semi-retirement visits to the country. The basic facts in any guidebook do not change from year to year while new regulations and changing economic are dutifully reported. I certainly don't expect the authors of a guidebook to present the same facts in a different form for each new edition. It's a guidebook, not a novel! I would rate Choose Mexico as five stars for their complete and entertaining guidebook on living in Mexico.
