Mexico's loophole economy: institutional gaps where agencies lack enforcement capacity (don't communicate, vary by jurisdiction). Work with accountants understanding actual vs. theoretical rules.
Día de Muertos (Nov 1-2) isn't ancient-it's syncretic (Catholic + pre-Hispanic), government-standardized post-1934 Revolution. La Catrina = 1890s political satire, not spiritual symbol. Mexico City parade invented 2016 after James Bond film. Real celebration = intimate families in homes/cemeteries.
Permanent residency: live/work indefinitely (~$400-500, weeks). Citizenship: 5-10 years residency + Spanish/civics exams but grants voting, passport, coastal property (6-12 months).
US expats in Mexico can legally pay zero US tax using FEIE (excludes $130K earned income if 330 days outside US or bona fide resident), Housing Exclusion ($15K-$30K+), Foreign Tax Credits. Must file Form 1040, 2555, FBAR, FATCA. Penalties 25-50% for non-filing.
Mexico has invisible class system based on family, surnames, phenotype - not just income. Expats miss it due to "tourist glow" effect.
