New warning issued against travel to Mexico: What to know

[@mathew3267]

All you have to do is watch one cartel video and you already know not to travel to Mexico.

[@j0rgesin]

It's not as simple as that, you can live in this country, you don't have to be paranoid, just avoid getting into trouble with shady people and don't get into dangerous neighborhoods and that's it, nothing out of the ordinary.

My fellow Americans …. I’m in Texas and I used to go to Mexico a lot for spring break Years back , I was at Carlos and Charlie’s I think is what the bar was called and this was in Cancun or Cozumel, it’s been a while with two other girls and thank goodness I am the one person that didn’t drink. Both of the girls that I was with were drugged in their drinks . Thank God I had met some Canadian guys earlier that day who happen to be in the bar on the other side as they were by the dance floor and we were up at the bar and the guys happened be staying in our hotel.. both girls started passing out, and the Mexican men around them started trying to pick them up and carry them out. If I would not have been there to alert the Canadian guys, I could not have handled this just by myself. We barely could get the Mexicans away from them and barely got them in a taxi and out of the grips of the Mexicans, and finally got them back into the hotel, which the hotel was safe at the time. Another time we were in Puerto Vallarta, and we had gone to a party one night, which was up in the mountains/jungles and we had taken a jeep up there in the Mexican federales saw us and they came after us. We were not doing anything, we weren’t drinking, but they saw that we were too blonde young women, and there were probably 10 Mexican federales on that truck . I knew if they caught us we were in so much trouble and that is if we even lived through it. We ditch the jeep on top of the mountains up there and started out on foot and it took us hours and hours and into the next day to escape the Mexican federales and get back into the hotel. My friend that was with me was so upset that she flew back to Texas the next day. The only thing we had to guide us was a video camera and we were using the light at night and the way the video cameras were set up back then it was just easier to put a button on that would turn everything on , so I actually have footage of this when I was trying to escape down the jungle.

Literally came back from Michoacan and went to Cabo in December. Felt safer in Mexico than here in the US. To each their own though.

[@asahel6575]

For US citizens, it's far less likely to be a homicide victim there in Mexico than in the US. The US fearmongering and propaganda is real

[@gytis296]

Maybe you need to go more times?Do you hear such a thing like probability theory?Mexico is a failed narco state.I will never go to places like this.

[@asahel6575]

@@gytis296 To each their own, but there are many cities there which are significantly safer than my city here in the States. If you don't think the US government is equally as corrupt I don't know what to tell you. Merida has lower crime than my city in every metric, and better healthcare

[@memoio8202]

Ese es el testimonio que se necesita contra toda esta propaganda negativa.

[@christinaraestott710]

Well,it's pretty bad here but not quite as bad as Mexico.

[@leewest356]

Do Not Travel warning should be issued for the U.S. where you could be the victim of a mass shooting or crime at Walmart, at church, a school, etc. I live in Michoacán, México and feel safe here. Violence here is between criminal elements or them and the government. Not random.

[@richmrstonestone]

There's an urban criminal class in America, who's crimes get " classified" as random,( but how is it " random " when 6 percent of population commit over 50 percent of the crime?). Avoid those areas and America is also very safe, especially " red state " areas. Democrat cities, like Baltimore, Chicago, Minneapolis are ROUGH.

[@richmrstonestone]

Mexico has a significantly higher homicide rate (28 per 100,000 people) than the United States (7 per 100,000 people), In 2021, 75 U.S. citizens died by homicide in Mexico, according to the State Dept.

[@babyucon]

[@JohnMark-ch8nw]

Hello dear

[@nala3038]

If you go to Mexico for medical reasons and stay with your plan you will be fine. Ive been many times. I never drive my vehicle over. Park at pay lot and walk across. You immediately get a taxi to where your going. The worst that could happen is youll be approached by beggars or the lines are over crowded. Never go on a Friday. Truth is, the dental savings are tremendous and the treatment is fantastic.

[@OfftoShambala]

Where do you go? What office, city? Thanks… I used to go there but my dentist in San Luis was just ok. I’d like to try someone else.

[@sirgeo79]

WHY IS THERE NOT TRAVEL WARNINGS TO OAKLAND STOCKTON?

[@108mtsan]

Staying in United States is way safer. But even compared to developed countries, USA is not that safe. For a safe English speaking nation, seek Europe. If you want the safest developed country to travel but not worry about language, go to Japan or South Korea.

[@j0rgesin]

It's that a significantly larger nation with a larger population will always have a higher rate of violence and crime compared to others, not only Mexico and the U.S., but other countries, that's how it is, you either accept it or you it so to speak.

[@bagotoetags801]

Yes, Japan where debris from the constant missile test made by NK and the potential misfire landing on your head one might consider South Korea where the U.S. has their backs in case NK decides to send rockets instead of thousands of bags of contaminated hazmat garbage.🤔

Because it’s cheaper to live even the teacher with the minimum wage converting his wages in Mexico into dollars. They are pretty loaded also most of them goes to the safest cities. I think Mexico is dangerous not saying the U.S. is any better either.

[@DreCrimson]

@Hexcat there's corruption and violence in every country. The majority of tourist who visit Mexico are totally fine as long as they mind their own business.

[@Ham_7za]

​@endritlleshi2000😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@greninjamariokartpokemonfan]

​​@@FexelizHowever, the most dangerous places in Mexico are especially susceptible to corruption and violence. Such dangerous places include anywhere in Michoacán that isn't Morelia (especially Zamora), Matamoros, Nuevo Laredo, Reynosa, and Ciudad Victoria (all in Tamaulipas), Ciudad Juárez (Chihuahua), Nogales (Sonora), Mexicali Valley (Baja California Norte), anywhere in Sinaloa that isn't Mazatlan (especially Culiacán), almost anywhere in Guerrero (especially Acapulco), Celaya and Irapuato (both in Guanajuato), anywhere in Colima that isn't Manzanillo (especially the eponymous city named Colima), anywhere in Jalisco that's near the Colima or Michoacán border, eight municipalities in Coahuila, the entire state of Zacatecas, and anywhere in Durango that's west and south of Mexico Federal Highway 45.

[@russellbarnes7728]

My wife and I relocated to Morelia, Michoacan almost three years ago. She's a Mexican citizen and I'm from Reno, Nevada. I've never been made to feel unwelcome, and have NEVER been approached or victimized by ANY crime in Mexico. The culture, the people, architecture, lack of stress, and of course the food, are strong arguments for life in Mexico. Like anywhere in the world, if you look for trouble, you can find it. It was certainly the best move I've ever made. VIVA MEXICO 🇲🇽

[@ArmisHart]

Yeah right. Mexico is an incredibly dangerous place. Literally the Wild West. It is basically a model for the US if the government ever truly does shutdown and police disbanded. Georgia for example is already a lawless state.

[@ArmisHart]

I was literally told a story by a coworker. Her mom was r@$ed. She was almost as well but her father pleaded for them to stop. They did thankfully. She was Mexican and from there. Thankfully she got to move to the US away from all of that.

Cause they’re broke, and it’s cheaper to live in Mexico. Still doesn’t make it safe to live just cheap to live. There was a teacher from the states that moved to Mexico because in the states it’s hard to live with minimum wage as a teacher but he said in Mexico it was possible to live. He converted his Mexican wage to dollars and yeah he’s good.
