Mexico, Missouri - My Home! 4 rating By Anonymous ( May 23, 2018) I love living in Mexico! This town truly is unique, with friendly people, good jobs, and a down to earth sense of community.

Some of my favorite things to do here are go for walks, especially at the Lakeview Park. A visit to the Graceland Museum is always a treat too! No, this ...Read More is not the museum that was once the home to Elvis, but it is the museum that is in honor of saddle horses! Growing up around horse myself has made me truly see the treasure that this museum stands for!

And I love downtown. There's quite a few different shops from antiques to music stores and different types of restaurants here too! We even have a jeep that is suspended in the air of the side of a building. Now THAT is definitely a conversation starter and is something that one must actually see to believe! I have no idea how the jeep is able to stay up in the air, but it's really neat! Read Less
