What do I need to know before moving to Merida?
When we asked people what advice they would give someone preparing to move to Merida, they said...
"Moving to Merida can be an exciting adventure, but there are a few things expats should consider before relocating. Knowing the language is essential for expats who want to settle in Merida, so it is recommended to start learning Spanish before arrival. As the city is located in a tropical climate, expats should be prepared for hot and humid weather. Security is also an important topic for people relocating to Merida, so researching safety policies and guidelines can be beneficial. It is also helpful to find out the quality of healthcare available before arriving and bring along any necessary medications," mentioned another expat when asked about moving to Merida, Mexico.
"Inalambrica is a nice area, close to a lot of parks and easy access to centro and the main market, there is a huge sports facility nearby too (Complejo deportivo Inalámbrica). Would not assume that because it is not near a main road means that it is quiet, all neighborhoods have bus routes that run through them and some streets are heavily used for short cuts or in this case to get to the Deportiva. There is no zoning laws like the US so the house could be next to a restaurant or business. I would recommend at least renting for 6 months to get a real feel for the place," commented one expat who made the move to Merida, Mexico.
