How much money does a pediatric nurse make monthly?

How much money could a nurse make in Morelia Michoacan Mexico?

• I am going to be an RN and I'm thinking about moving to Morelia. How much money could a nurse make there?

• Answer:

  I am a retired R. N. living in Mexico. I have been told R.N.'s make about $100.00 a week in Mexico. That may vary place to place, but it is definetly true that you would make only a small fraction of what you can make in the United States. You would be much better off to work in the United States, save up and make trips to Mexico when you are able. When you finish school, you could work for a couple of years in a hospital, get good experience, then become a "traveller" in the states if you like. Travelling nurses usually make a higher wage and have 3 month assignments. Then you could take 3 months at a time off if you like to travel to Mexico. It is also difficult to get a work visa in Mexico, and your standard of living would be Waaayy lower here on what you could earn here. Actually, i believe you should get a good job with a great retirement plan...then after 20 yrs...when you are eligible for your pension...you can move to Mexico and live quite well!
