The Yucatan Times readers are constantly asking us through social networks if we know how many expats actually live in Mexico full time. Because most of them find it hard to believe that more than 1.5 million expats from around the world call Mexico home these days.
Pinning down the exact number has always been difficult because census bureaus and state departments within countries often don’t track the whereabouts of their expats on a regular basis.
So The Yucatan Times along with 2b Marketing, a Merida-based professional services organization that analyzes and interprets information gathered from the local, national and international markets, came up with this infographic to respond to that question in a simple and visual way.

Hey. How come you did not mention Riviera Nayarit or Banderas Bay?
Some of the most expensive real estate in the country is here,not that that is the only thing. We get 4 to 5 cruise ships a week and almost every airline flies here several times a week.
There is a large retirement community as well as long term visitors. I would the number is around 10 to 15% all together. I think that is worth a mention. Check out Banderasnews.com
Ah, I know. You want everyone to come to the Yucatan,right? Smile. That is a beautiful part of Mexico,I must admit.
Thanks for the info,
