Mexico has a history of being a popular destination for North Americans seeking health care in foreign countries, as well as Mexican-Americans who return home in order to visit their family doctor/dentist and save money. Mexico originally gained popularity as a spot for dentistry and cosmetic surgery, but orthopedic procedures have recently gained momentum. Boasting state of the art facilities on par with American hospitals, Mexico is one of the premier destinations for medical tourists. Located just across the southern border of the United States, Mexico is a conveniently located destination for Canadians and Americans. It is the 5th largest country in the Americas and its vast land mass provides a varied experience for travelers. From ancient Mayan ruins, Spanish influenced colonial edifices, pristine beaches, mountains, deserts, contemporary nightclubs, and posh restaurants; Mexico offers a range of attractions that can satisfy anyone from the intrepid traveler to those who prefer rest and relaxation.
Why Vallarta?
With fewer than 200,000 residents in the entire area (off season), Puerto Vallarta still ranks among the 10 most popular cities in the world. Along Paris, Sydney, and others, PV was chosen the top spot for vacationers by Conde Nast. Also, PV was voted number one for retirees by the AARP and the friendliest city in the world. Since the early 1960s, Americans have been coming to Puerto Vallarta, not only for a holiday, but to stay in their own vacation homes. And since those early years the area has grown to where the American and Canadian community is now more than 50,000 strong, Puerto Vallarta is now much more than a little sleepy fishing village today. Vallarta now encompasses a coastline of over 150 miles that includes many other small coastal towns, large residential resort developments and spectacular beaches.
Reasons Why foreigners buy real estate in Puerto Vallarta
While Los Cabos and Cancun seem to always be in the news as appealing Mexican destinations, Puerto Vallarta has been keeping a low profile in the background. And while the spotlight’s on them, it is actually Puerto Vallarta that has created this country’s largest resort real estate market — more Americans own homes in “PV” than in the other two cities combined! It offers mountains as well as ocean, more marinas and golf courses, the best dining of any Mexican resort, and more variety in the pricing, type and style of the real estate offered than either of the other destinations. All that, and yet the cost of real estate is much less expensive in Puerto Vallarta!
Probably the most active real estate market south of the American border is in and around the famous tourist destination of Puerto Vallarta. In 2004 it was estimated that $400 million USD of resort real estate was sold, with most of that purchased by American second-home buyers. In 2005 this increased to $550 million USD, with 2006 easily surpassed that.
Cost of Living
It is still less expensive to live in Mexico than in the United States and most likely will continue to be. Property taxes are a fraction of what they are to the north and the cost of support staff for your home is very reasonable.
MEDICAL & Hospitilization:
Medical services are 2nd to none in this region with the new state of the art Amerimed Hospital now open and they accept American insurance! The doctors are approachable, reasonably priced and most are educated back stateside, Europe or Cuban educated. Plastic Surgery is the key factor motoring medical tourism here in Puerto Vallarta, along with numerous Cardiac specialist, Emergency medicine and even Air-Vac services. There are numerous key hospitals in the Puerto Vallarta region:
Location
Puerto Vallarta is just a two- or three-hour flight from most locations in the southern US, making it very accessible. Many second-home owners are known to commute for the weekend; returning on Sunday or Monday. Some people actually prefer to drive down from California, Arizona and Texas, so if you don’t mind the 24-hour trip, that’s an option. Puerto Vallarta is less than four hours from Guadalajara, Mexico’s second largest city, which offers great home decoration shops, galleries, workshops, and a fascinating world of colonial architecture and heritage.
Topography
Situated within one of the largest bays on the Americas’ Pacific coastline, the South Shore is draped in dense tropical forest as the Sierra Madre mountain range meets the coast. Properties here offer spectacular views of the city and bay and easy access to Vallarta. The North Shore is less mountainous and the climate dryer; some years little or no rainfall is recorded. Further north still, the landscape returns to tropical forest, with dramatic hillsides backdropping pristine coves and beaches.
Variety
Puerto Vallarta is blessed with a variety of real estate opportunities and there really is something for everyone. Because of its unique topography it offers homes and condominiums on the hillside overlooking the bay, beachfront properties all along the coastline to the south of Puerto Vallarta, and marina and golf homes and condominiums in the central part of the bay. The most recent expansion has taken place to the north, with small, boutique condominium projects and high-end luxury homes.
Stability
Mexico’s economy is strong, especially with recent high oil prices, as Mexico has one of the world’s largest oil reserves. This, along with a strong trade with its neighbors to the north and a robust tourism market, have helped sustain Mexico’s economic growth.
Restaurants
Puerto Vallarta is said by many to have the finest restaurants in the country outside of Mexico City. And the large full- and part-time American population supplies a strong client base. Vallarta is famous both nationally and internationally for its exceptional culinary variety and quality, the town’s prestigious gourmet festival every November drawing epicures from around the globe.
Art & Galleries
The color and magic of Vallarta is a magnet for artists, allowing numerous galleries to prosper. The art from these galleries can be seen featured in many Vallarta homes. During the high season art walks, very popular social events, are held each week and usually followed by dinner out on the town. 
Society
Where Acapulco is famous for its nightlife Puerto Vallarta is more subdued, people prefering to socialize over dinner at the many fine restaurants in town, relaxing afterwards at a lounge to enjoy Latin jazz or classical music.
Golf
There are seven established golf courses with three more just starting up. Three are in the immediate Vallarta area, three in the central area of the bay shoreline, and two at its northern tip at Punta Mita. The three newest courses are all located on the north shore of the bay. In 2005, Puerto Vallarta surpassed Los Cabos for the number of games played by visiting golfers, and Jack Nicklaus returned in 2006 to build yet another of his signature courses at Punta Mita.
Boating
There are three major marinas within the bay, with another almost complete. Puerto Vallarta offers more dock space than any other destination in Mexico. The bay is wonderful for fishing and diving and good sailing winds are available all year round.
The People
If you were to ask Vallarta homeowners what the best reason is to choose this area, many would tell you it’s because of the people. Vallartenses are happy and giving, which creates a wonderfully welcoming community atmosphere where foreigners and expats really feel like they belong.
Friendliest City in the World and #1 for Retirement
Puerto Vallarta was named as La Ciudad Mas Amigable en el Mundo (The Friendliest City in the World) by Condé Nast magazine. Condé Nast quotes, “Friendliest of all, however, Puerto Vallarta (92.5 out of 100 points) the Mexican resort city marked its debut on the list in 2001, in part because of the remarkable amiability of the local folk.”
Puerto Vallarta also scores high on ambiance (over 90.0) and is rated number eight out of ten top foreign cities in the world to visit (Conde Nast Traveler, 2001).
The American Association of Retired Persons (AARP) picked Puerto Vallarta as the top destination to retire overseas in its September, 2010 issue of AARP – The Magazine. Financial experts traveled the globe to name their top five overseas retirement destinations. Decision factors included weather, expatriate community, cost of living, available housing, health care alternatives, access to the U.S, local culture and leisure activities.
Puerto Vallarta, Mexico is the undisputed #1 destination for American retirees. With its rich local and colonial culture, lavish beaches and affordable real-estate, Puerto Vallarta offers the low-cost, laid back lifestyle retirees seek to find in a community. Today, the presence of numerous sidewalk touts selling time-shares and tequila render the city’s atmosphere more akin to tourist-heavy resorts like Cancun and Acapulco, but overall the city’s friendly reputation remains relatively undiminished. Puerto Vallarta is a charming seaside resort area with alluring beaches, colonial ambiance and architecture, and first-rate restaurants and hotels. The town is located on gorgeous Banderas Bay, which is on Mexico’s western coast and is regarded as one of the most pure and unblemished destinations in Mexico.
Puerto Vallarta became a popular tourist destination in the late 1960s as the city became more accessible to visitors. It is located on the same latitude as Hawaii’s latitude and visitors are treated to a similar climate. With 330 days of sunshine a year, Puerto Vallarta vacationers bask in annual average temperatures of 83 degrees.
