Hey Sparks....where did you find a nice 3-bedroom 2-bath house one block from the beach?? Everything we've seen is WAY more expensive than that. In fact, seems to me that housing is just as expensive, if not more so, than in the US, but now I'm retired and can't afford a house anymore. Or are you talking about the crumbling block houses, with tar paper roofs, with chickens in the front yard? Actually, the chickens I don't mind.

Well I live in Melaque Jalisco and 'nice' is relative. No chickens and it's in a nice neighborhood ... but I've been here 3 years, know what goes on the market - and got lucky. If you are looking on the Internet from up north forget it - you have to be here and learn your way around to find the better options.
Here's the house and a test posting of a foto

Hi, Jamie
I love the good faith answers, Jamie. And I thanked anyone who provided one. I'm just not sure what a discussion of "corrupt government and police and nacro-insurgency" has to do with the question I asked. But a bunch of people jumped in on it, so I guess it was valuable for someone.

Sparks....that does look like a nice house! I would imagine Melaque gets mighty hot and humid during the summer months though. Thanks for posting the photo, I'm glad to see that there are still bargains to be had...you just have to be there and be aware I suppose. I'm going to stop looking at real estate/rentals on the internet as it is very discouraging to see the high prices.
