Chiang Mai, Thailand

About 450 miles north of Bangkok, Chiang Mai, an ideal retirement heaven, sets in a fertile river valley surrounded by mountains. Thailand is perhaps one of the cheapest places in the world to live well. However, Chiang Mai houses over 17,000 foreign residents as it has most favourable climate and high quality health care facility.

Puerto Vallarta, Mexico

Once named as the friendliest place in the world, Puerto Vallarta is one of the most sought after destinations for retirees. Mexico, which always makes headline for wrong reasons, is not altogether that bad. There are indeed some beautiful regions for both living and investing. Mexico is not a cheap option for retirees, but one can experience the coastal lifestyle within a budget in Puerto Vallarta. Moreover, Vallartenses are renowned for their warm hospitality for foreign residents and they are flexible to different lifestyles, and so foreign residents can live in much harmony and peacefully. It’s profoundly rich Indian and Spanish culture, beautiful beaches, attractive colonial hill towns and affordable real estate attracts retirees to Puerto Vallarta.
