LOW COST OF LIVING |
|
Basic cost of living is lower than USA and Europe. Food, local goods and miscellaneous products at a super market are a lot less than in other countries. You can go watch a movie in a VIP movie theater for as low as $4 USD, and have a wonderful taco dinner for as low as $3 USD, then if you decide to go get a hair cut you can do so for as low as $5USD. If we talk about services... Water is relatively inexpensive, but not always drinkable. When it comes to electricity, it can be the same as in the USA, unless your consumption remains below certain level, in which case government subsides can help keep your electric bill low. Calling from landlines in Mexico has been the lowest it's ever been in previous years. Gasoline and diesel prices are set by the Mexican government and for this reason prices don’t fluctuate as much as those in the USA and Europe when oil prices go up or down on international markets. This year for the first time, gasoline stations are allowed to sell gasoline at prices lower than the maximum level set by the government. Click here to read more about Riviera Maya Cost of Living |
