I'm British with a brit passport. Easy for me to enter?

Where are the best areas?

Whats the crime like?

Schools and healthcare?

Taxes?

Any info, much appreciated
You don't necessarily need a FM3 visa. Just ask for a 180 days tourist visa at the airport, which you can have it renewed by leaving the country for 72 hours.

No problems with a Brit passport.

I would say Riviera Maya, maybe I'm biased, but the weather, the beach, the people, the places are great here.

Very little here, much lower level than in the big cities and the northern Mexico.

School and healthcare are good quality, but expect to pay for it.

The only unavoidable tax is the famous "mordida".

Hope it helps
