True cost of living is a very subjective things as we all life different lifestyles.

some folks need their wine or hard liquor, me included
Costco for some things but not really like we used to back in Oregon at all.
We live a very comfortable lifestyle here and we are saving 30-35% for sure across the board. We could do better if we wanted to. We buy local everywhere we have lived in Mexico and have learned to embrace and enjoy the experience. My wife loves getting to know our poultry or pork butcher. it's fresher, cheaper and we have NEVER gotten sick here. Can't say that for those big name chains up north.
The pace of life here is a big part of why many of us chose to live here I suspect.

Where was your Oregon home? We're from Portland, Beavercreek, and Pacific City.
