The difference is probably not so much the temperature but other factors like humidity (at these temperatures, higher humidity increases the feels like temperature) and wind (it decreases the feels like temperature the stronger it is). Also, any area by a large body of water (like Ajijic) will have a milder climate. Also, a big city has an urban island heat effect that further increases the feels like temperature (the heat gets trapped between the buildings).
That makes sense, for sure a wind difference. I'm in a suburb of Guadalajara now and it's not big buildings but I can see how an urban island has an effect. I'm also at 6100 feet for five days now and feel no negative elevation sickness. While elevation sickness usually starts at 7k, I'm happy to be doing well between 5 to 6100 after my disaster in Ecuador at 8300. I'll be at 5 to 6100 for a few more months and tackle up to 6700 in Guanajuato and than can do higher and see if that was an anomaly in Ecuador.
Here are the differences in where at now and Aijijic 30 minutes away. I have an Airbnb now with AC so not a big deal. I can say I feel way more motivated near the big city than versus water vibe which lulls me to complancey. Have filmed three videos the last 24 hours and getting my YT channel planned that is getting me excited to create and launch something new.
