## Guides & Articles

- [Mexico\u2019s Second Government Report: What Sheinbaum\u2019s Recap Means for Life in San Miguel](https://mikefanelli.com/guides/mexico-government-report-2026-what-it-means): President Claudia Sheinbaum delivered her Second Government Report from the National Palace on September 1, covering her administration\u2019s first 23 months. The headline figures: 60 million people employed, 2.7% unemployment, nearly $35 billion in foreign investment in the first half of 2026, a minimum wage up 154% in real terms since 2018, & homicides down 51% since she took office. Here is what was announced & what it means if you live in, or are thinking about owning in, San Miguel de Allende.
- [Why Is September the Best Month to Walk Through a House in San Miguel de Allende?](https://mikefanelli.com/guides/best-time-to-tour-a-house-san-miguel-rainy-season): September is the best month to walk through a house in San Miguel de Allende, & it has nothing to do with price. It has to do with rain. We are at the tail end of a rainy season that runs roughly from May into early November, which means the house in front of you has just been through the hardest test it gets all year. Walk in after a storm & you learn whether the roof drains or pools, whether that faint line on the bedroom wall is paint or moisture working its way through, & where the water goes when the patio floods.
- [What Did the August 2026 San Miguel de Allende Market Actually Do?](https://mikefanelli.com/guides/san-miguel-de-allende-market-report-august-2026): 27 homes & condos closed in San Miguel de Allende during August 2026 at a $595,000 median, $16.6 million in total volume, & a median 184 days from listing to closing. Only 15% sold in under 90 days & 19% had been listed over a year. 44% of priced sales closed under $500,000, & nothing closed above $2 million. August reads cleanly: the $615,000 average sits within 3% of the median, so there is no single outlier distorting the month.
- [What Happens to Your Canadian Health Coverage When You Move to San Miguel de Allende?](https://mikefanelli.com/guides/canadian-healthcare-moving-to-mexico-san-miguel-de-allende): Provincial health coverage is tied to residency in your province, so a permanent move to Mexico ends it once you are no longer a resident there. There is no health agreement between Canada & Mexico, which means nothing follows you south. Your replacement comes from 3 places: voluntary IMSS enrollment, a Mexican private policy, or an international plan. Most couples here end up combining cash payment for routine care with insurance for the catastrophic event.
- [How Do Rooftop Solar Water Heaters Work in Mexico?](https://mikefanelli.com/guides/solar-water-heaters-mexico-how-they-work): The rows of black glass tubes you see on Mexican rooftops are evacuated solar tubes, & the silver cylinder beside them is an insulated storage tank. Sunlight heats the water inside the tubes, the warm water rises into the tank on its own, & cooler water sinks back down to be heated again. Most homes in San Miguel de Allende pair the solar heater with a gas or electric backup for nights & long cloudy stretches.
- [What Should Families Know About Health Insurance in Mexico?](https://mikefanelli.com/guides/health-insurance-for-families-in-mexico): Families here choose among 3 paths: public coverage through IMSS, a Mexican private plan, or an international policy. Public is the cheapest & the most limited, with public facilities only & an age cutoff for the policyholder. Mexican private plans buy you shorter waits but often carry low benefit maximums. International policies cost the most & cover the most, including newborns, childhood immunizations & care outside Mexico. Compare deductibles, networks & how long dependents stay on the policy before you sign.
- [GEMA Festival 2026 in San Miguel de Allende: What It Is & How to Plan Around It](https://mikefanelli.com/guides/gema-festival-2026-san-miguel-de-allende): GEMA Festival runs August 26-30, 2026 across San Miguel de Allende, the first edition of a new platform built around Gastronomía, Enología, Mixología & Arte. Expect more than 19 activities: multi-hand dinners, wine routes, mixology pop-ups, masterclasses, art interventions & a closing night at Casa Dragones. Organizers project more than 65,500 visitors & roughly 70% hotel occupancy, so book rooms & dinners now. If you are house hunting, this is the week the city shows you exactly who it is.
- [Mexico & Canada Deepen Agricultural Trade: What It Means If You Live in San Miguel de Allende](https://mikefanelli.com/guides/mexico-canada-agricultural-trade-usmca-san-miguel-de-allende): Mexico & Canada agreed in late July 2026 to expand agricultural cooperation, aligning regulations & smoothing agrifood trade under the Canada-Mexico Action Plan 2025-2028, while the future of the USMCA stays unsettled. For residents of San Miguel, the practical effect is a food supply that keeps flowing north & south, & one more reason the region has stayed insulated from headline trade drama. For buyers, nothing here changes how you purchase a home, & the local market still moves on local supply.
- [Is the Internet Fast Enough in Mexico to Live & Work From San Miguel de Allende?](https://mikefanelli.com/guides/internet-in-mexico-remote-work-san-miguel-de-allende): Yes, for most people. New INEGI data shows 86.1% of Mexicans aged 6 & up are now internet users, 104.9 million people, & 88.9% of urban residents are online. San Miguel is urban, well served by fiber & cable in the built-up neighborhoods, & thin at the edges. The number that matters is not the national average, it is what reaches the specific house you are considering, so test connectivity before you write an offer.
- [What Do You Need to Check Before Buying a Used Car in Mexico?](https://mikefanelli.com/guides/buying-a-used-car-in-mexico): Check the paperwork before you check the paint. A used car sale can close & still leave you unable to put the car in your name, because registration depends on the original factura, a matching VIN, current plates, paid taxes, & a clean REPUVE record. If the car came from another state or was imported, there are extra steps. In most states you also need residency & a CURP to register a Mexican-plated car in your own name.
