Retirement Seminars And Information
The Lake Chapala Northwest shore region is a major
destination for thousands of sunbirds, snowbirds, and
retirees. You will find the largest concentration of expats
living here than any other place in the world. Many come
here to escape the high cost of living, the freezing
winters, and the sweltering summers found north of the
border. You will also find a large community of Europeans
living here as well. A recent news article stated that in
the Mexican State of Jalisco (The Lake Chapala Area) almost
23,000 registered Americans, 3,400 Canadians, and over 6,500
Europeans call our area home.
According to National
Geographic this region is second only to Kenya in having the
world’s best climate. English is widely spoken here.
