¿Ajijic?

Ted suggested Guanajuato as a retirement possibility, but I am still intrigued by the charms of Lake Chapala. The village of Ajijic (pronounced ah-hee-HEEK), population about 15,000, is supposed to be very a friendly and accepting community. I found this listing for a rental there, without too much effort. What do you think?

I am not saying we would rent this place, but it gives you an idea of what is available for a thousand a month. I can dream anyway ...
