Mexicans complain about all the Americans moving in.

This is so funny. Honestly, i understand how people that wake up to a neighborhood full of Martians might go, "What the hell?" But what's so funny about this is the same arguments on both sides of the border.


Speak Spanish and learn the culture.


Not everyone is rolling out the welcome mat to Americans. Many Mexicans complain about the rapid growth of the American population in their neighborhoods, the threat they see to Mexican culture and language, and the possible drain on Mexico's inexpensive health care.

In San Miguel de Allende, the group Basta Ya is protesting the erosion of the language and the rising cost of living generated by the infusion of dollars into the local economy.

"They think Mexico, especially San Miguel de Allende, is an extension of their country," group member Arturo Morales Tirado said of the Americans who call San Miguel home. "It's not and won't be, no way."


In San Pancho, Nicole Swedlow, a 34-year-old transplant from California and single mother of two, began a nonprofit organization aimed at building ties between Americans and Mexicans, with donations coming mostly from U.S. retirees.

"The last thing I want to see is an extension of California deep into Mexico, where Mexicans are priced out of their own communities," Ms. Swedlow said. "It's our obligation to ensure that we build bridges, learn their language and celebrate their culture. We need to learn to coexist."
