Hard to really do much comparison between the two places. I found them to be so much different, yet enjoyable. People are good in both places, but have different agendas, different life styles. One has the Lake, the other, the Jardin and food, etc. One not important to many, nor the other to others. Kinda like Gto., so different, but with many pluses for those who live there. All have their problems, but somewhat different. All worth a trip and several days to enjoy.

I lived in Ajijic for 18 yrs and moved to SMA nearly a year ago. I find the weather about the same but the nites are always cool. We´re having overcast days now and I find that if you do everything you need to do before 1 or 2, then go out again at 6, you avoid the hottest times. I miss the dissipating lake, but have seen it come and go thruout the years, I love the sophistication of a larger city, there are MANY, MANY things to do. I actually have an active social nite life here, whereas in Ajijic, I found it difficult to go out at nite and drive 12 west. They´re both great places, depends on what you´re looking for

Wow, I didn't have to do all that in 2009. We went directly to SRE in Guadalara, never had to present a Police clearance nor go to Mexico City.

Yes, but we did it when it wasn´t all that well known.....and so glad we did!!!!!  And the cost was less than $3000 ps, made in 2 installments, if I recall.

Hi, I´m to subtitute  for my brother Tony for tennis lessons, he´s quitting for a while, I´m fixing to first find a place to stay in Chapala or  Ajijic, I´ll probably start  next week, the cost is $150 pesos, thanks!

Is your brother, TONY, the one who´s married to Linda?

Apparently there's a little mini-epidemic going around, within the gringo community, so no kissing on the lips and drinking from other peoples glasses.

NOW you tell me??????

Are you talking about 'ball resurfacing'?  If so, I went to Dr. Gonzalez and he does not do that....there are alot of requirements to have that done....I had both hips replaced by Dr. Gonzalez...I´d say he does 30 a month!  I was at Clinica de la Ribera and it has few rooms, but every room was one of his patients w either a hip or knee replacement. I was back on my feet within 11 days and working!  He replaced the other within 7 weeks....
