No the downsides of Mexico are the insecurity, the pollution and the endemic corruption of authorities.

Not speaking english is a fake problem. You can learn spanish in 6 months if you live in the country, it's not a very hard language and Mexican are very social people.

As a Canadian, I'd move to Mexico if I was paid the same as I'm making now. Of course no company would be happy to have that happen ;-)

Plus, I'm already used to going to Mexico in winter for a week on a beach, and Mexican food is delicious.

If you get a remote working gig, you can work from anywhere. I regularly get contracted by americans and still work from my bedroom in France.
