The cost of living in Mexico generally varies by region and city, with inland cities less expensive and international beach resorts and large cities more expensive.
Your cost of living will depend upon the type of lifestyle you want to have and may be similar to what you left in your home country, if you want to maintain a similar lifestyle.
For cost of living by selected city in Mexico, you can visit either Expatistan or Numbeo, two popular crowd-sourced cost of living websites. Both allow you to compare costs on a number of selected items in your home city (or a comparable city) and cities in Mexico.
