Where do you want to grow old?

When my husband was alive we bought a home in Lake Chapala Mexico, we were going to spend 6 months there and 6 months in Florida.

3 months after we bought it my husband was diagnosed with cancer, that ended that as the cancer care was not able to help him there and Medicare was needed.

We kept the house for 5 years hoping we could finally use, we could not, fortunately, the man we bought it from rented it from us.

Today the area is riddled with crime so I am glad I no longer have the home.

Thanks for your thoughts. I have considered Lake Chapala for several yearas, and was not aware that crime was chasing expats away. I still prefer Panama where I had a home many years ago, but it is a long way if you life in the west.
