Why Retire in Baja California Sur? The Smarter Financial Choice for Your Future

Retirement should be about freedom, adventure, and making the most of your hard-earned savings—not watching your money disappear into property taxes and rising costs.

Recent data* shows that sky-high property taxes in cities like New York, Chicago, and Philadelphia are forcing retirees to look for more affordable alternatives. With rates exceeding 2% of a home’s value, many are realizing that traditional U.S. retirement destinations are becoming too expensive.

That’s why so many are choosing Baja California Sur.

If you’re considering a move, here’s why Baja California Sur should be at the top of your list:

1. Low Property Taxes

While many U.S. retirees are paying 1.75% to 2%+ in annual property taxes, Baja California Sur offers an unbeatable advantage—property taxes here are only 0.1% of your home's assessed value. That’s a fraction of what you’d pay back home and a game-changer for retirees on a fixed income.

2. A High-Quality Life for Less

Forget overpriced real estate markets like Florida and Arizona. Here in Baja California Sur, you can own a luxury home for a fraction of the cost, particularly with the new developments and communities all around Baja Sur.

3. Perfect Weather, Every Single Day

No more harsh winters or unbearable summers. Baja California Sur enjoys 300+ days of sunshine with a warm, mild climate—ideal for golfing, fishing, yachting, or simply enjoying a sunset by the beach.

4. Top-Quality Healthcare That Won’t Drain Your Savings

One of the biggest concerns for retirees is healthcare. In Baja California Sur, you’ll find world-class hospitals, English-speaking doctors, and affordable private healthcare options—all for a fraction of the cost in the U.S.

5. A Thriving Expat Community

Retiring in a new country doesn’t mean leaving your lifestyle behind. Baja California Sur has a large, welcoming expat community with English-speaking services, modern infrastructure, and plenty of social activities.

6. No State Income Tax & More Financial Freedom

Just like Texas and Florida, Mexico does not tax foreign retirement income, meaning your savings go further. And with a favorable exchange rate, your dollar gives you more purchasing power here.

Why Baja California Sur Is Outpacing U.S. Retirement Destinations

Recent census data confirms that retirees are leaving high-tax, high-cost states in record numbers. While many are still moving to places like Florida and Arizona, those areas are becoming increasingly crowded and expensive.

Baja California Sur offers a better balance—affordability, luxury, and an unbeatable quality of life.

With rising demand and increasing property values, now is the best time to secure your future in Baja California Sur. If you’re thinking about making the move, let’s talk.
