About San Antonio Tlayacapan
Just south and west of Chula Vista is the village of San Antonio. This village has remained largely unchanged with the influx of North Americans. At first glance you may not realize there are North Americans in the village, but please. look again. Behind the walls are lovely homes with modern appliances, beautiful gardens, and happy retirees. Here you truly learn not to judge any home by what you see from the curb. Along the highway in San Antonio are several grocery stores, liquor store and meat market featuring US products. North Americans in their transition period, and after, will find these products satisfy their yearnings.Nearby is the Lake Chapala Little Theater where English productions run through the winter months. Next to it you will find one of two bilingual schools in the area. This is also the location of a very successful, 110 home development called “El Parque”.
