To me, when you compare Ajijic and San Miguel, the best choice is a no-brainer. San Miguel is cold and very expensive; I didn’t come to Mexico to live where it’s cold and expensive! I’m partial to Ajijic’s genuine warmth and quirkiness, too. I love the rogue colors everywhere and the mountain and lake vistas. The natural beauty is riotous and abundant here at Lake Chapala.
Ajijic is also located outside of Guadalajara, Mexico’s second largest city and within close proximity to other places you’ll want to check out.
