I would love to float from NJ to Playa.

I would have no problem living in Playa.

The Wife would be homesick. I could leave her ass here and go... lol

80% I will be living there or some place in the yucatan in the future

Somewhere inthe Yucatan for 8 months of the year and 4 months where I live. Possible Merida or Isla Mujeres or Valladolid but maybe Playa. Might need to win the lotto first.

Are you kidding, live in a dangerous place like Mexico when I could retire to Binghampton NY

Seriously, I love Playa, but from all I've heard from the locals, it's a PITA (I don't mean Greek bread) to live there. I could see having a condo and spending most of the winter there, but I would have to come back around May. Summerfest, Brewers, Badgers, Packers, farmers market. I might have to leave before X-mas to get out of going to my mothers house

Yes, I would love to live there, but a person might get bored unless they could think of something to keep them busy. I don't think there are to many jobs for people from the US. I wouldn't mind being down there for 2 or 3 months,(after the snow is gone)I would head back north.

As a friends kid started saying recently " funnin'- A" . I could live somewhere like PDC or Isla Mujeres for 4-5 months in a heartbeat.

Whatīs not to like about living here...........especially if you plan the move properly. I probably had been to Playa more than 40 times before I moved here. I planned the move for about 4 years before actually moving here full time. Again, whatīs not to like about paradise.

Love Playa. But love Ohio's summer and fall. So plan is to winter in Playa about 3 months out of the year. Already did 1 month, now next year will be 2 months!
