Main paths: residency by income (~$4,400/mo), by marriage to a Mexican, by a child born in Mexico, by a job offer, or by buying property worth ~$586,000+. After 5 years of residency (2 with family) you can apply for citizenship.

Mexico is one of the most accessible countries for residency: no language required upfront, transparent requirements, and 1–2 month processing. The key is choosing the right consulate and preparing documents correctly.
