I loved CDMX when I visited! I stayed in Roma Norte and had a very fun time. How's the safety situation as a long-term resident? Also, that last sentence is very intriguing! How does that work in practice? Does the government simply not monitor this very closely?

Re: Safety I go to CDMX very often and not once have I felt unsafe. Moreover, it is getting increasingly popular among foreigners to move to CDMX permanently or temporarily. I do have friends that feel like the safety is not good enough for raising kids, so there is that. I think as long as you stick to safe areas, you should be fine. Re: visa You can find the requirements here [0] (I don't know why it is in Canadian dollars). I have a handful of Spanish friends that are under this visa. They technically work in the US or Spain but are "temporary residents" in Mexico. Mexico only requires you to pay taxes on income gained in Mexico. So if your employer (or your clients if you are a freelancer) are abroad and the proceeds are deposited to a foreign account, then Mexico does not tax that income.
