5.0 out of 5 stars Solid - current (12/99), December 6, 1999
By David McLaughlin (Ajijic, Jalisco, Mexico) - See all my reviews
I find this book to be well written and a good basic overview (with neccessary details) for anyone considering part-time or full-time living in this facinating country.

I have been living and working in México for 5 years and believe that this book would have been invaluable for us when we were first considering and then making the transition.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Primer, January 28, 2000
(From Planeta.com Journal) - Entertaining and useful guide to relocating or retiring in Mexico. Gringo havens such as Lake Chapala, Puerto Vallarta, San Miguel de Allende, Cuernavaca and Mazatlan are featured in depth. The author combines practical information with entertaining ancedotes. The result is a lively primer on living abroad.

4.0 out of 5 stars Thoroughly Researched. Excellent information., June 26, 2001
By A Customer
Ken Luboff has done a 1st class job in laying out the realities of moving to Mexico. He is without bias, is realistic and clearly thoroughly understands Mexico and her people. Anyone contemplating moving to Mexico, or just trying it out, should read this book. It is expansive, sensible as well as fun. My advice is: don't go to Mexico without this book in your suitcase. From Mexico's tulmultuos history to dealing with the locals, shopping, health and eating out, Luboff has covered it all. I recommend this book even for people going to Mexico for a vacation. For those moving there, or thinking about it, this book is a must. A book that is invaluable in any reference list, and a book that is a great deal of fun to read.

5.0 out of 5 stars Thorough and to the point
If you need a pragmatic guide on how to resettle there, look no further. You need to have a strong knowledge of Mexico to really enjoy it though, or buy a country guide as well.

4.0 out of 5 stars Informative, albeit basic
This is a one day read that will be most appreciated by folks who are completely new to the concept of living in Mexico.

5.0 out of 5 stars Live Well, Written Well
Luboff's book provides not only sound, up-to-date information but includes personal anecdotes which bring Mexico to life. It is clear that Luboff knows and loves his new country.
