You are referring to the Canadians that loose their medical and other benefits if they stay out too long, this figures are for those foreigners that have applied for either work visas or permanent residence.
There are others that are semi permanent, they spend as much time as possible, and then make a mad dash to the border or take a plane out, stay 3 to 5 days and return to Mexico, they do not count on the census, they are considered as turistas.
It is interesting to see how many nationalities there are, I know that there are social clubs that represent several nations, there are also several schools that are recognized in in the country affiliated to the school, Colegio Aleman, Colegio Americano, etc. I spent a 4th of July there, there is an American Legion chapter in Mexico City.
