Casas de Luz Compared with other developed countries, the cost of living in Yucatan is extremely low. You can easily find your dream home for just half the price it would cost elsewhere – sometimes even less. Mexico, the wealthiest country in Latin America, offers a safe living environment and a high standard of living, all at reasonable prices. Combined with comparable levels of service, and access to foreign products and franchises, these ensure that Europeans and North Americans will quickly feel at home. You can enjoy the same lifestyle in Yucatan as you would back home, with all the added benefits of living in a tropical paradise. There is a rich cultural heritage, excellent beaches, outstanding natural beauty and a friendly local population. The Yucatan Peninsula is also a very safe place to live, with a very low crime rate compared to any western country.
