About This Guide

Oaxaca City is a popular base for month-long stays among remote workers and Spanish students. Winter is dry and sunny, and the historic centre is walkable with markets, food and crafts. The city sits at about 1,550 metres, so nights are cool.

Best neighbourhoods for a longer stay

  • Centro histórico: Walkable and central, with most restaurants, markets and cafes, but louder at night.
  • Jalatlaco: Colourful, quieter streets with cafes, popular with remote workers and a short walk from the centre.
  • Reforma and Xochimilco: Residential neighbourhoods with local restaurants and a more local feel, usually cheaper than the centre.

Good to know

  • Use purified bottled or garrafon water for drinking. Tap water is not generally drunk.
  • Mexico usually grants visitors up to 180 days, decided at the border. Check the number of days you are given on entry.
  • Nights can be cool in winter, so check blankets or heating in your rental.
  • Daily food markets are the cheapest way to eat and shop, and you can use shared taxis and short taxi rides around town.

How we picked: these are apartments and aparthotels in Oaxaca rated 8 or higher by Booking.com guests, so you usually get a kitchen and more space for a longer stay. Checked in October 2026.
