Americans take vacations in Mexico and book resorts that are protected from those things. As long as they don’t venture out too far, they feel they are safe. Personally, Mexico is the last place I’d go on vacation to. I live in southern California and have been to Tijuana, Ensenada and Rosarita Beach a million times. They’re nothing but trashy, dirty cities. It’s amazing you leave the US, cross the border into Mexico and the difference is stunning. Frighteningly so.

Mexico is a big place and not all regions are violent. Much like the United States a big place and not all regions have the same level of violence as Detroit.

In the current environment I wouldn’t go to Mexico. Canada is a good alternative for a close by and reasonably inexpensive vacation.

Most US tourists going to Mexico are retired and go there because they can stretch the dollar. Popular with college kids without brains and horny genital areas, buy cheap alcohol and screw their brains out.

My mother, lives in Mexico half the year. She hates the fact that I refuse to go there and won’t allow my child to visit that craphole, either.
