This is like, I don't know, Cape Cod vs. Boston or something. These are wildly different cities. Santiago is bigger, more urban, a capital....Acapulco is a tourist resort town on the Pacific Ocean....

It's hard to find a job in Acapulco, too many gringo's, backpackers and people that want to live on the beach coupled with too few schools and Acapulco isn't very rich (The Mexicans aren't anyways).

I don't know anything about Santiago, but I assume you would have better luck there. I have been to Lima, Peru and I thought it was a great city. Warm, dry, right on the water. Friendly people and there seemed to be a good number of schools/jobs for English teachers.

Maybe somebody else on here can help you with some more info.

Bueno suerte!

Well, sistaray, if you know something, then perhaps you could help the lady out instead of being so "pfffffff........What a stupid question. I've been all around the world, why haven't you?"



kellyp, I haven't been to Acapulco yet but if you send me an email, I'll gladly give you the lowdown on Santiago.
