Merida, Mexico
What do people like (and dislike) about Merida?
When we asked expats and global nomads what they like and dislike about living in Merida, they replied...
"The only thing I do not like about anywhere in Mexico is the racism toward white people. I deal with it every day. However, it is the poor, uneducated, unsophisticated people, who are ignorant who do this. Racism is not that much of a problem in Central America like it is in Mexico. Or any other countries I have traveled to. But Mexico is the worst for it," said another expat in Merida, Mexico.
"I've never experienced any racism by Mexicans towards white people. But I've seen PLENTY of racist white people treating Mexicans poorly. Maybe try treating them with a little respect and courtesy. In my experience, Mexican people are warm and kind and good. If you go to Mexico and get mad at the locals for not speaking English, you should GO HOME," wrote a member who made the move to Merida, Mexico.
