The community here that are still on a temporary visa still use the expat term. I am a permanent resident now (finally) and have been here 21 years now. I’m considering citizenship and looking into that. My wife is from here as well (we call the locals in Guadalajara Tapatios/Tapatias).

So yes, I’ll be here until they get tired of me and kick me out (the university and the country). 🙂
