Seven Reasons To Purchase a Mazatlán Home
Popular for its seemingly endless beaches, nearly flawless climate, and casual lifestyle, Mazatlán
is one of the world’s most inviting destinations. Offering all the comforts and conveniences of a
large city, Mazatlán retains a charming and friendly small-town atmosphere. No wonder CNN Money and
International Living rank it among Mexico’s top three retirement spots. Experience quality living at
prices well below major U.S. and Canadian cities … and at a fraction of the cost of Hawaii or the
beaches of California, Florida, or the Caribbean.
El Cid Real Estate offers you seven compelling reasons to buy a Mazatlán Mexico home:
Read about fun attractions and sights near our Mazatlán resort real estate.
Close to home
Mazatlán is relatively close to the U.S. border. You can drive to or from Nogales in 12 hours, although
leisurely motorists tend to stop overnight halfway. By bus, Nogales is 16 hours. Traveling by air? It’s
a scant two hours to Phoenix or Houston, 2.5 hours to Los Angeles, and less than three hours to Denver
or Salt Lake City. All of these cities are hubs for further travel on Mexicana, America West, Continental,
AeroMexico, Alaska, Delta, or Frontier — the airlines serving Mazatlán.

Near perfect weather
Just 15 miles south of the Tropic of Cancer, Mazatlán is in the same latitudes as the Hawaiian Islands
and the southern Bahamas. Enjoy tropical conditions with dry, moderate winters and warm, wet summers.
The average temperature year-round is 77*F.

Local traditions and pride
Mazatlán is an old seaport city where many people trace their ancestry back four and five generations.
Mazatlecos grow up seeing and welcoming strangers with a smile and a friendly “hola”. We fiercely hold
onto traditions such as our street parades and Carnaval -- said to be the third largest in the world.
The Angela Peralta Theater, faithfully restored in 1992 to its 1860s glory, brought about a renaissance
in the surrounding neighborhood, a historic quarter full of Neoclassical buildings. Mazatlán is the only
beach resort city in Mexico with an opera house suitable for symphony, chamber music, grand opera, jazz
and rock concerts, ballet, and other performing arts. Over the course of the year, they all appear here.

A cross-cultural connection
In Mazatlán, lifelong locals and new residents live in friendship and harmony. There’s no animosity toward
Americans or Canadians. In fact, the local tourist industry – hotels, restaurants, cocktail lounges,
nightclubs, golf, deep-sea fishing facilities, and other visitor services – is set up to deal with
English-speaking customers. Also, among the 3,500 American and Canadian retirees already living here,
various social groups have formed to network and perform voluntary community work.

Reasonably priced health care
Health care is available and competitively priced. The Sharp Hospital, modeled after the facility in
San Diego, is up to big-city standards in the U.S. The Sharp Hospital is where the cruise lines sailing
the Mexican Riviera send their ailing employees; in addition, local dentists take care of their teeth.
No wonder: Prices for high-quality treatment in the city hospitals are much lower than north of the
border. Some doctors even make house calls!

Lower cost of living
Retirees find that their pensions go one third further than back home. You can still get a cart full of
groceries for less than $50, and household help is reasonable and available. When did you last pay $3.50
for a movie ticket? As a big city, Mazatlán has a good transportation system with bus fares running about
70 cents, and taxis around $4 or $5 for most trips around town. You don't really need a car.
