  1. You mean your family or an average Mexican family

    That would also depend a lot on what you consider average

    I guess since you know the ages they are yours.  A nice 4+ bedroom house is probably $600us and up.  Electricity is high, gas is average, cable and Internet similar to the US.  Food is cheaper if you eat Mexican style - gringo style will cost.  Gas for the car is about $2.70 a gallon

    You may have to buy most of the appliances and furniture for any rentals


  2. For a Mexican family of good means,  a couple of thousand dollars a month and much more - - For median income about 600 dlls a month - For very low income, 3000 pesos a month = aprox. 290 dollars -

    When I worked in Mexico City atached to the U.S. Embassy I paid 550.00 a month rent ( Dollars )  25 dollars fort t hree days to a lady to come to my apartment to clean, wash my clothes and take my clothes to the cleaners - Fix my lunch when I asked her - Groceries cost me about 65 dollars a week - Usually gave her 20 pesos for trasnportation every time she came - Depending the locale here your apt. is such as Colonia Del valle a nice house can rent for 800 dollars a month or buy one for about 200,000.00 dollars   Secured location - In Polanco, rents go for about 1000 to 2000 dollars a month - A nice condo. if you can find it , from 550,000  to about 700,000.00 dollars - A house from about 1 1/2  million dollars and higher -

  3. mexico is a very unequal country, specially when it comes to talk about income, the AVERAGE  household live with 5000 USD a year.
