Puerto Vallarta, Mexico - Are you thinking about where to live or retire? Puerto Vallarta is undoubtedly one of the best choices in the world. Here's why.

Kathleen Peddicord, editor of Live and Invest Overseas, just published the now well-known list of the World's Best Places to Live or Retire. This publication specializes in retirement abroad, and, along with International Living, has once again named Mexico, and specifically, Puerto Vallarta, as one of the cities offering the best quality of life with the most benefits and discounts for those wishing to spend their retirement years abroad.

Puerto Vallarta, for several years now, has served as a reference point, as an increasing number of retirees have chosen this location as a place to live, experience adventure or to permanently establish. Most of these retirees are expats, however, there are more and more nationals also choosing this as a place in which to retire.

There are several reasons for this, the first of which, is its tropical climate, as, who wouldn't like to live at the beach? Puerto Vallarta is a peaceful and safe city, an important part of its quality of life.

The growth of infrastructure that Puerto Vallarta has experienced in the last few years has turned it into a world class destination, with a lifestyle similar to that in Southern California, without the cost. Puerto Vallarta is no doubt an attractive and affordable destination with great golf courses, enjoyable top-notch resorts, marinas, restaurants, shopping centers and numerous places and activities to see and do.

Puerto Vallarta, one of the largest and most welcoming communities in the world, is presently home to over 40,000 expats and retirees.
