Therefore, we took the time to recommend the best neighborhoods to live if you intend to purchase in San Miguel de Allende Real Estate.

Los Frailes

“Colonia” Los Frailes is one of the most sought out neighborhoods for Real Estate in San Miguel de Allende. It is comfortably located a few minutes away from the historic Centro and is relatively isolated from downtown busy streets which grant silence for those seeking to escape the busy lifestyle of the city. It also offers great views of the lake and countryside!

One of the best aspects of this part of town is its cobblestone streets that twist and turn seamlessly into a magical labyrinth of houses that are pretty just to observe.

Colonia Independencia – Contrasts Collide

If you are looking for a home away from home while still seeking to live a true “Mexican Neighborhood” then look no further than Colonia Independencia. It is a place where most Mexicans live right next to many American expats, the reason why so many people buy here is that depending on where your property is located you can have some great views to downtown and the “Parroquia” church itself.

Sunsets in San Miguel de Allende, in general, are quite a sight to behold worthy of a postcard picture, however, you can truly get to appreciate them if you live here, especially during summer you can really start to understand why so many people choose to live here.

One last advantage of living in this area of town is that you are right next to the highway that will take you in less than 40 minutes to Guanajuato, the capital of the state.

Balcones – The Neighborhood of Golden Sunsets

One of the best aspects of living in San Miguel de Allende is the sunsets, and the best place in town to appreciate them could arguably be “Balcones”. Set on top of a steep street you will find houses with some beautiful Mexican colonial touches.

Most, if not all, houses take full advantage of the fact that being set so up high in San Miguel de Allende will give you some breathtaking views of the historic Centro, the lake and the mountain range all while being showered in the golden rays of the sun during an afternoon.

If you can get past the fact that this neighborhood is set in a steep street I can almost guarantee you that the views alone will make your investment in real estate well worth it.

Guadiana

Perhaps this is the neighborhood with the most value in San Miguel de Allende Real Estate, the reason being it is close to Centro, some of the houses are as old as the town itself and still maintain its historic value.

But what this neighborhood really has to offer is elegance. One stroll through the streets of this place will go to show why it’s one of the most prestigious places to live in.

Historic Centro – The Heart of San Miguel de Allende

Centro is by far the best places to live in San Miguel de Allende if you are looking for a genuine taste of 18th Century Colonial Mexico during the time of the Conquista. There is a reason why the value of properties has grown so fast in recent years and that is because everyone wants a piece of the pie.

Why You Should Live in San Miguel de Allende

Why Invest Today in San Miguel de Allende Real Estate?

We often hear Mexico being in the forefront of the International spotlight and not always in a good way, however, many have started to hear San Miguel de Allende be one of the top destinations to retire abroad, and despite the negativity surrounding recent political events in the country it is still one of the best places to make investments and obtain some amazing yield in the mid to long run. Here I will list for you some of the great advantages of investing in San Miguel de Allende Real Estate.

High Value For The American Dollar

It is probably a safe bet to list this straight off the get-go, low peso means high value for the American dollar. If you had come visit Mexico about a decade ago you would have been able to exchange a single dollar for ten Mexican pesos. With this money many Americans and Europeans would come and have an amazing vacation, eat very healthy food given the fact that produce is not as heavily processed in Mexico and would be enough to entice many to realize that the quality of life in the country is in many cases “better” than in their native countries.

This has only been become more clear in recent years due to the global shift in economics and politics, in and outside of Mexico. People living in first world countries have less value in their fiat currencies due to inflation, which means that when it is time to spend your twilight years you have less to make more, and that is exactly when people looked to Mexico. With the Mexican peso hitting it’s lowest value, ever, it means that you can do a lot more with your money.

Best Quality of Lifestyle

Some may ask, “what good is money if you are going to spend it in an underdeveloped country?” The reality is that Mexico is definitely NOT a third world country, as a certain President would have you believe, and in fact has a very good infrastructure and its redeeming quality, amazing healthcare.

Mexico enjoys top of the line healthcare, with some of the best Medical universities in the world being here, it is no surprise that Mexico enjoys the largest industry of Medical tourism in Latin America. Many Americans go visit their southern neighbor at times almost exclusively for this reason. With medical bills costing a fraction of what they would in first world countries, medical insurance seems almost unnecessary.

This has made another thing possible, great retirement and assisted living services. Hospitality and friendliness in Mexico are world-wide renown so it is no surprise that the Country hosts two of the largest expatriate communities in the world, Lake Chapala and San Miguel de Allende. Mexicans have the highest respect for elders and are naturally “warm” and accepting of foreigners so retiring in Mexico is almost a no-brainer.

A UNESCO World Heritage Site Everyone Wants To Live In

And lastly, San Miguel de Allende Real Estate is an emerging market that has investors flocking to the UNESCO World Heritage site trying to stay ahead of the latest Real Estate trends that indicate that the town will in all likeliness be the number one retirement destination in the Continent.

TL;DR Investing in San Miguel de Allende Real Estate is a “no-brainer” due to the high value of the American dollar, great lifestyle value and having one of the largest retirement communities of baby-boomers you will never feel alone.
