Saltillo

What advice would you give someone preparing to move to your area about the actual move, choosing a neighborhood and finding a home?

Saltillo is a great place to live with friendly locals, a mild climate, and beautiful surroundings. Before moving, expats should make sure they know the language, as most locals speak Spanish, and brush up on the culture - traditional outfits, cuisine, and customs. Being prepared for the language barrier and culture shock will help make the transition smoother. Additionally, expats should research the city to get a better understanding of the neighborhoods and safety levels. Understanding the safety measures in place, like registering with a police station and learning emergency numbers, is important to stay safe in the city. Lastly, learning about the local transportation system is key for expats to navigate around.
