San Miguel de Allende

Overview

Moving to San Miguel Allende has never been easier. San Miguel de Allende is one of the most popular retirement destinations for Americans and Canadians in all of Mexico and real estate continues to play a major part in the vibrant local San Miguel economy. It a popular holiday and tourist destination for people from all over the world and seniors hoping to buy or rent homes or real estate in San Miguel Allende, with its well-established English-speaking community, will feel very much at home.

With a wealth of colonial architecture, it occupies a priceless spot on the Mexican map. Local regulations prevent new construction that conflicts with the colonial style and the overall character of the town. Those searching for an unspoiled colonial townscape are well advised to consider San Miguel de Allende. Those hoping to build a new, more modern home may need to find a lot some distance from the town proper, but houses and condos are affordable and as beautiful as the stunning landscape.

San Miguel is a typical Mexican mountain pueblo, with a flat town center, the town spreading out on all sides towards the surrounding plateau. Roads into town are covered by rustic cobblestones and can be steep, with narrow sidewalks, but the cheery colonial paint provides ample welcome in spite of the cobblestones’ jostling anxious drivers. Real estate opportunities are as terrific as the town itself.
