A big feature of living in Mexico is that domestic help is relatively cheap compared to countries in the Western world. In Manzanillo it's common to pay around US$25 to a person (usually a woman) who will come and clean your apartment, iron clothes and if you're willing to pay a bit extra, cook as well.
For expatriates often the most important starting references upon arriving in a foreign country are expatriate clubs and associations. Some of the most important are the American Society along with the DAR, the International Friendship Club, and Rotary International. American Society acts as a large umbrella organization harboring smaller clubs and associations that are based on particular fields of interest.
Generally speaking, medical services are relatively sparse in Manzanillo and those in need of serious medical attention are advised to go to Colima, the state capital. Guadalajara, a six-hour drive on the tolled highway, is also home to state-of-the-art facilities.
Schools in Manzanillo are quite varied. They have private and public schools to educate children from kindergarten up through 12th grade. They also have very high quality public and private universities and technical schools.
Manzanillo offers a tranquil atmosphere that encourages the pursuit of unhurried pleasures. In fact, there's little to draw you away from the golden sand beaches and fantastic resorts of this pleasantly understated destination known as the "heavenly paradise."
