Pros and Cons of Living in Cabo San Lucas

"Expats in Cabo San Lucas are often impressed with the friendly and welcoming attitude exhibited by the locals. From the genuine, relaxed atmosphere to the traditional Mexican hospitality, people feel right at home in Cabo San Lucas. The culture is one of relaxed, laidback living with lots of sun and a mild climate. The town is safe, the streets are filled with colourful architecture and bustling markets, and the nearby beaches offer endless opportunities for relaxing and exploring. For people who want to experience the warmth of Mexican culture, Cabo San Lucas is the perfect place to do it," said one person in Cabo San Lucas.

"Expats in Cabo San Lucas often find it difficult to adjust to the local language barrier and the fact that many people speak only Spanish. Another challenge for expats is the Costa Rican culture which has a different set of social norms than the rest of Mexico, which sometimes takes time to understand and get used to. Moreover, the region has a very relaxed attitude towards time, meaning that expats may have to adjust to different levels of punctuality in daily life. Lastly, the cost of living in Cabo San Lucas is higher than other cities in Mexico and can pose a financial challenge for expats," said one person in Cabo San Lucas.

"Delays in acquiring services, internet and repairs in apartment. Dust and heavy air. Interruptions in water and power. Language. Uneven, broken sidewalks," remarked one expat in Cabo San Lucas.
