I thought Uruguay is expensive?
If not it's worth looking into.
If not in your home country, then where do you plan to retire?

Regarding Mexico, Baja (except for Cabo) is appealing, but probably not as a full-time base. I would want to balance it out by also having a base with a little more going on. Mexico City is great, but the rents there for the neighborhoods I would want to be in are high for a retiree teacher (and insanely high when compared to the rest of Mexico). PV is popular but just too touristy for my taste. I have heard good things about Guadalajara & Guanajuato but have not yet visited these cities so hard to say if they would be suitable. Love Oaxaca city as a place to visit but I think it is just a little too small to live there - with that said you could live there very cheaply. I think coastal Oaxaca would also be worth checking out, but have not been there myself.

I honeymooned in Ixtapa/Zihuatanejo and enjoyed it very much 17 years ago, fwiw. (And yes, I checked the phone books while I was there; no Andy Dufresne nor Randall Stevens listed.Very disappointed. ;-) )
