    We recently moved out of Isla. I don't know when the centro street scenes were shot, but they are only that empty at 6am. Now, it's over the top with golf carts, people, scooters etc. NOT a peaceful place. Also, rents are much higher than mentioned in this video. Beautiful? Absolutely. But expensive and overcrowded.

      I'm curious if you don't mind. Did you find somewhere cheaper to live in Mexico? I plan to retire in Mexico and looking for affordable spots. Thank you

    "Isla," as I call it, is so beautiful. I love it with all my heart and soul. When I first started visiting, it WAS affordable and had a relaxed vibe. Now that the secret is out, prices have really gone up, and it has become a bit over run with tourists. Be aware that rental and purchasing prices are not what they used to be. Even so, my heart will always be with Isla. ❤❤

      Thanks for the feedback. Personally, I know a lot of people that love living in Isla Mujeres and aren't having such a problem finding reasonable rentals. But you have to come willing to do some homework and know what is reasonable And what is inflated . Thanks for watching!

    It’s Mexico’s Key West. I rent a 1 bedroom year round for $400 a month and use as my vacation home. For the price of a weeks vacation in Key West I can have my own vacation home in paradise for a year.

    I've lived on Isla Mujeres full-time for almost 13 years. Love it! I'm an anthropologist who also sells real estate on the island. There are 17 named neighborhoods, all with varying rental or purchase prices. As for hospitals or medical care. All they can do for you in an emergency is stabilize you enough to get you to Cancun.

    I fell in love with Isla 10 years ago and have been going back every year, however, it has become so overrun with tourists and I believe the infrastructure is not meant for so many people and the prices have skyrocketed. Due to this, I have had to find a new Shangri-La :(

    It's Playa Norte, not Punta Norte. The neighborhood in the North end of the island is called "Centro". Also, about 20,000 people live in the municipality, which also includes a much larger area on the mainland (we call it the continental zone). Only about 14,000 live on the island.

    I spent about 10 days in Isla Mujeres and hung out with the locals. Many of them are tired of the noise coming from the houses built by foreigners in the past 10 years or so, and who have parties day and night. I have witnessed such occurrence on several occasions, and I am absolutely not a fan. The north side is very crowded and there’s no peace there. The island is becoming more expensive because of the tourists.
    The island also has a big issue with lose trash on the streets and in parks, due to the fact that it’s not easy for them to export the trash outside the island, but also due to corrupted politicians, which is basically the case all over Mexico.
    The island has beautiful nature, but the entire area is turning into a crowded party place. Not a fan.
