The first post is correct the second one is horse ----. I have good friends who live in Mexico city and you can eat out for in a denny's for $7.00 American . From what I have heard rent is about 1/2 of the price of a similiar dwelling in Chicago. From my experience meals seem about 1/2 price also. Electronics ect are more expensive but a lot of people make from 75 to 250 dollars a week , how could they live if prices were not cheaper for food and housing .
