Couple, all in. Compared at country level, so capital cities and large metros run higher. The price level behind it prices the basket residents buy, and a foreign renter cannot reach the cheap end of local housing — poorer countries may still sit too low here.

Pathoff judgement directed by evidence, not computed from it: the country’s position comes from the World Bank household consumption price level for 2024 (0.590 of the United States, CC BY 4.0 — the ICP benchmark carried forward annually by the World Bank’s own method); the US reference budget is ours. See the Pathoff method, section 12.

영주권Means-tested, published, and it ends in permanence

Pathoff outcome rubric (the Pathoff method, section 10-4), residency band "A route with conditions you can meet": Temporary residence on economic solvency is open to someone arriving with income or savings, the thresholds are published, and four years of it leads to permanent residence. High in the band. Short of the open band because the first card is issued for one year and renewal is at the immigration authority’s discretion.

Consulates moved to assessing solvency in UMA units in 2026, which changed the amounts, and individual consulates apply them differently. Treat any specific figure as consulate-specific.

의료Voluntary public cover, with holes in it

Pathoff healthcare rubric (the Pathoff method, section 13-2), band "Covered, with a private top-up in practice": A resident without formal employment can enrol voluntarily in IMSS at an age-based published price, waits push most people to cheap private care alongside it, and serious treatment is done in the country. At the very foot of the band because the voluntary scheme excludes pre-existing conditions and applies waiting periods, which is a larger hole than a queue.

Out-of-pocket spending is 41.2% of current health expenditure here (World Bank, 2023, CC BY 4.0). Read it with care: the measure counts only what insured people pay — not premiums, and not the uninsured — which is why the United States comes out at 10.9%, ahead of most countries on this site.

여기는 어떤 곳인가

Mexico publishes what it wants: an income or savings threshold, a temporary residence card, and permanent residence after four years. Costs are around half the US level, IMSS can be joined voluntarily, and private care is cheap and quick. The trade-off is blunt and it is the safety line — 139th of 163 — and the fact that the financial thresholds moved in 2026 when consulates changed the unit they are calculated in.

절차는 이렇습니다

1

Apply at a consulate abroad, not in Mexico

Residence on economic solvency is granted by a consulate; you cannot switch from a tourist entry.

⏱ 1–3 months
2

Exchange for a residence card within 30 days

Missing the window means starting again from outside the country.

⏱ 2–6 weeks
3

Four years, then permanent residence

Renewals run one, then up to three years, and the fourth year opens permanent status.

⏱ 4 years
