I have lived in Ajijic since November 2021 and the lowest rent I have paid was for a one bedroom casita $500 in La Floresta, $823 for a one bedroom casita in Vista Alegre, private community, and $700 for a 2 bedroom in downtown Ajijic. The change in the value of the USD to the MXN peso really increased the cost of housing in Mexico.
We don’t have any chain stores. We go to Guadalajara for clothes, shoes, cosmetics, etc
Virtually every residence is distinct unless you are in a gated community. This makes it almost impossible to estimate the average cost of housing.
