Guanajuato is the capital city of the state of Guanajuato in Mexico’s Bajio region.
The city is known for for its architecture, art scene, college vibe, tunnels, and kissing alleyways that are sure to impress you.
It’s as charming as San Miguel de Allende but about half the cost! And because it has temperate weather, you can expect your days to be about 80 degrees and 50 degrees at night.
Perfect weather year round!
Guanajuato is in the region known as El Bajío, a relatively high-altitude area with a semi-dry climate. Guanajuato is at 6,000 feet above sea level. This is a wonderful central highland city in Mexico we recommend to live in!

Really nice video, Mariana. I have an airbnb in Rosarito, Baja and two of my guests are from Guanajuato and have shown me pictures. I’m hooked and your video just put that hook in deeper. I’m a videographer (I like to tell stories) and am wondering what the rules/restrictions might be re: drones. Any input? Thanks. Bruce G

Very nice video of a city I now call home. One of the very first steps to relocating anywhere is a TRUSTED realtor who can provide more than just helping you find a home. I was extremely lucky and wanted to the name Guanajuato Property with you. You will not be disappointed with their top notch service and widely valued range of expertise.
I love Guanajuato and you will too!

Hello just read your view on Guanajuato.
I am an elderly Pensioner ,Widow, and like to escape Canadian winters (mostly the one 22/23) it was nasty ! LOL
I am looking for a 1 bedroom all furnished Apt ,quit and clean.
I have stayed in San Miguel in 2012 for 3 month but I am looking for something smaller less touristy. It is also for retirement there.
Can someone be of help ? Looking for July 23
Thank you.

Hola, I am a 70 something Gringo with good conversational Spanish. Your video convinced me to come for a few weeks to explore and assess the possibility of being a part timer. Now I will research for an Airbnb! Thanks šo much. Well done video.

Great video, Mariana. I just finished my canje in Playa del Carmen and the heat/humidity was stifling. Even though I am a beach lover and had vacationed in PDC about 10-12 times, a temperate climate is becoming more appealing. Guanajuato seems to be a perfect choice and I will be researching the area for current prices and hiking opportunities. I hope to be there for a few days next year to see it first hand. Thanks again.

Thanks Mark. If you prefer lower humidity, def look into the Bajio region. It’s semi arid but not brutally hot.
