How do I find a place to live in Merida?
We asked expats how they chose their neighborhood and found a place to live. They answered...
"One of the best ways to find a place to live in Merida is to search online on websites like Airbnb or Craigslist. Additionally, you can reach out to local real estate agents who specialize in housing in the Merida area to help you find the right place. Another option is to use online expat forums such as Expat-Merida.com, which can be helpful in connecting you with other expats who have experience living in the area, who may even be able to provide tips and advice on finding suitable housing. Finally, you can try personally asking around within the local community to see if there are any housing opportunities available," wrote a member who made the move to Merida, Mexico.

"I live in a large furnished studio with good sized kitchen with pantry (full size appliances), true dining area (room for 6-8) living area with sofa, coffee table and 2 chairs and nice sized bedroom area. It has a yard with parking and outside dining and is fully air conditioned. It's actually the ground floor of a 2 story house so it's larger than most studios IME. Including my power, water, garbage, gas and WIFI, it's under $400 USD per month. Outside my front door is a park and 2 more parks are within 3 blocks in opposite directions. It's a great neighborhood away from downtown but still has every kind of business within a 5 minute walk. A really nice mall is 2.4 miles away and it's dog-friendly! I've lived in 3 different neighborhoods in Merida, Yucatan, Mexico including Centro and this is by far my favorite! FYI, my AC runs 24/7/365. It's clean, quite, walkable and has green spaces," explained one expat living in Merida, Mexico.
