After living in Mexico for a while, how does a U.S. expat view life back home?
Our views of living or even visiting different places are of course based largely on what we’re used to. That’s where we get our baseline from which we form our perspective. For example, if we live in the US and then move to Mexico, we would naturally compare our life in Mexico with our life in the US. This happens all the time, and I and others have written a lot about it.
1) The boiling crab. It wasn’t always that bad. I’m old enough to remember when Los Angeles wasn’t that crowded and wasn’t that expensive. But now, it’s very much both. However, it didn’t happen overnight. It happened slowly enough that people didn’t notice it that much and they had time to adapt. If it had happened all at once, you would be able to hear the yowls all the way to Las Vegas.
4) They have a job that they need where they can’t move, or they have very strong ties to family and friends that would be broken if they moved to another place. This of course is extremely legitimate but this “other place” would include places in the US, which has nothing to do with moving to Mexico.
I thought again of the people back in the US who asked me when we were “moving back.” Considering their question, I have many times made a mental “Franklin T,” in which I put all the positives of “moving back” on one side and the negatives on the other. The result isn’t even close.
