Puerto Vallarta Living
The Real Puerto Vallarta - Beyond the Vacation
There’s a big difference between visiting Puerto Vallarta and actually living here.
Where you live can completely change your experience. Do you want flat and walkable? Ocean views in the hills? Restaurants and nightlife outside your door? A quieter residential neighborhood? More space for your money?
I’ve lived and worked in Puerto Vallarta for years, and this is where I share the things I wish more people knew before making PV home.
Neighborhoods. Restaurants. Cost of living. Local events. Buying and renting. Moving to Mexico. And all those little things you usually figure out only after you’ve been here awhile.
