So did i and concur on this. I also lived in the DC suburbs from 04-06 and the news was constantly murder related.

The difference is that those two cities are US controlled and regulated, mexico is not. English speaking country where you can dial 911, spanish speaking where if you are chased on foot or car, you cant dial for help and you may not be able to outrun someone.

No kidding.

My husband owned a home in the Frankfurt neighborhood. Gunfire was not common, but not uncommon, either.

A good friend was doing her undergrad work at U Penn during the late 70’s / early 80’s. The Rizzo and Goode era. U Penn is in a sketchy part of West Philly. To make matters worse, my friend is black. She wasn’t sure whether to be more afraid of the local thugs or the cops… both were pretty darn scary.

The original point of this thread was asking if you are less likely to go to Mexico today than a few years ago due to the fact(real or perceived) it is a more dangerous than it used to be for a foreign visitor.

The fact that somebody crashed his car in a remote deserted area of Baja and had medical problems and complications has nothign germain to this discussion. That story in now way demonstrates that Mexico/Baja is “More” dangerous than before. There are always risks involved with traveling in a foreign country that can make matters complicated in the case of an accident.

Well @dead, if the issue is not real but perceived, then Mexico has a simple public relations problem. Run a few ads, coupons, and there you go. Americans will flock back in droves. Sounds like a business opportunity for you.
