Mexico's Most Expensive City: It's Not What You Think (But It's Definitely Expensive)
Welcome to San Miguel de Allende, Mexico’s priciest paradise! Think $20 tamales, million-dollar homes, and art that’ll bankrupt you faster than you can say "UNESCO." It’s charm with a price tag—perfect for the well-heeled, less so for the penny-pinching. Bring your wallet and your wits!
If you’ve ever fancied sipping a margarita in Mexico while enjoying a view that doesn’t include a single sombrero-clad tourist, you’re likely aiming for one of its posher locales. Forget the cheap tacos and budget tequila; today we’re diving headfirst into Mexico’s most exorbitantly expensive city. A place where your wallet takes a holiday, but your bank account calls for a stretcher. Welcome to San Miguel de Allende.
Now, you might assume the title of "most expensive city" would go to the sprawling megalopolis of Mexico City, with its traffic jams so long you age a decade waiting for the light to turn green. Or perhaps Cancun, with its opulent beachfront resorts and tourists slathered in sunscreen that costs more than gold per ounce. But no, it’s the quaint, cobblestoned charmer in the state of Guanajuato that takes the prize.
