Chapala v San Miguel

How would anyone go about finding the answer?  My guess is that they're both generously blessed with both.

San Miguel is the biggest Gringo enclave in Mexico, Lake Chapala second. San Miguel seems to have more Americans than Canadians, a lot of whom have, shall I say, "attitudinal issues" from my experiences there. Even so, it's relatively easy to ignore them and enjoy what San Miguel has to offer. It is pretty cold there in the winter, though, especiallly if your house is not receiving much sunlight. The altitude (around 7,500 ft.) can cause all sorts of issues as well.

Yes, December/January nights go down into the lower 40s F. I rented a condo 'away from the sun' for a month a few years back and even with 2 heaters we liked to have frozen our buns off. Daytime was great outside. Won't make that mistake again.

BTW, the mean altitude of San Miguel is 6,200ft.....
