Merida can be a good option for people from the US and Canada to retire. It is a safe city and people can take it easy every day with no need to hurry. Access to Merida is easy by plane or highways. The infrastructure of medical services is good and the cost of living is much less than anywhere in the US, and yet, not far away.

Baby Boomers (born between 1946-1964) who in general are in good health and have an active lifestyle seek places to retire where they can practice their favorite sports: golf, tennis, swimming or just relax while having fun with friends. All this can be found in a city like Merida.

The cost of living is an important issue when you reach retirement. In the US the price of buying a house is at least $100,000 dollars and depending on the town or city and conditions of the house it can go up to several millions. In Merida you can buy a small house in the center of the city starting at around $40,000 dollars.
