Mexico is a vibrant country with a rich cultural history that draws expats and foreigners alike.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To fully embrace the culture, try to get involved with your community as much as possible. Take advantage of every opportunity to get to know your neighbors, and take the time to learn and understand your new home\u2019s traditions.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Celebrating cultural festivals like the Day of the Dead is a great way to embrace Mexico\u2019s history and get involved with your community.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Best Places to Visit and Explore in Mexico<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">US citizens moving to Mexico should take advantage of the many sightseeing and recreation opportunities in Mexico, like the archaeological sites Teotihuacan and Chichen Itza.

Additionally, if you work in Mexico, your salary will likely be lower. Consider your budget for housing, food, utilities, and other items to ensure you can afford the move.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Moving Family Members: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Your family can move with you to Mexico, but they will need to apply for and be approved for temporary residency visas. Additionally, the monthly income or savings limit required for a temporary residency visa will rise with each family member you bring with you.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Learning the Language:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> It isn\u2019t required to learn Spanish to live in Mexico, but it is highly recommended so you can acclimate to the culture and make connections more easily.
