One of the reasons I moved from California to Mexico a few years ago. Much more affordable and can live on outsourcing wages while working from home.



Might I ask any details about how taxes work in that situation and what cities are good etc.


The US still wants to screw me with excessive 'self-employment' taxes and if I put the local address into Upwork, Mexico wants to take an additional 20% for their own taxes which Upwork is happy to do off the top since they enjoy spending my money more than anything.

I like Ensenada. Thinking about La Paz at some point maybe. Supposedly the water is warmer there.
