The Ugly side of Tijuana.. How dangerous is it??

This short Sample of Tijuana Poverty. In certain parts of the city the living conditions are brutal. A large the cities population live without running water or electricity.
I was definitely limited on the footage i could get. But some of these slum type communities Extend for miles and miles as far as you can see.

Before the Mexican government surrendered to the cartels, Tijuana was a great place to visit. However, those days are long gone. As long as it is unsafe to visit, people should participate in an economic boycott of Tijuana. If people stop visiting Tijuana, as well as Mexico in general, the Mexican government will be forced to act.

Health tourism is huge in TJ, as it's so easy to reach from San Diego. Almost every corner has a dentist, or a laser eye clinic or a plastic surgery clinic. For Americans facing huge dental bills, a trip to TJ is the perfect solution. And on the back of that, the health tourists have also boosted local businesses, especially hotels, AirBnBs, taxi services, restaurants etc. I love my twice a year trip to TJ to the dentist. I've made friends there who i visit when I can, and I have never seen the dark side shown in this video.

Yep... you hit the nail on the head with that comment Stephanie. I had a rich Mexican friend who lived in one of those communities. Actually, he lived there long before it existed but it was built all around him eventually swallowing up his land. So, to get to his mansion you had to go through the community. Everyone there was a retired American enjoying cheap housing and living costs while at the same time insulating themselves from the surrounding community. It's the American way unfortunately.

The most incredible thing about this, is that the “poor” people in Tijuana or in Mexico actually own their modest homes, they’re not worried about one day the bank or the tenant will kick them out, and while they can’t afford a car or an iPhone, they have delicious food and roof over their heads, the poor in Mexico are not like the poor in Africa.

[@ricardodumas9161]

Not really, a lot of them are squatters, they just occupy other people's land and refuse to get out until the government regulates and gives them the land or relocates them somewhere else, and once that happens they sell that land to other people who are just moving from the south of the country. It's been happening his way for decades and a lot of neighborhoods in the city were founded this way. Currently this is a big issue in the east of TJ.

I’m not sure what in a NAFTA is but I always like seeing comments like this, but keep in mind learning how to use adobe premiere Pro on your own, and trying to produce a documentary style video doesn’t exactly come naturally. It may not seem like it judging by the quality but there’s quite a bit that goes into even a super basic edit. Trying to speak, smooth, annunciate, script it with the right words and punctuation and then try to make it sound professional with some sort of beginning, middle, end and conclusion. Making sure the audio is decent and learning how to operate 100 or so different settings and functions is a different skill. And it’s hard to say, which one is more dangerous with so many variables but yeah you gotta valid point. I thought of deleting the video but as long as the video is public, I’m still getting paid.

Before it was only the poorest of Mexicans, but now there are also poor Central Americans, Haitians, and even small numbers of Africans and other Latin Americans (Venezuelans for example). That said, the majority (50% or more) is not living in slums. If I'm not mistaken, around 30% of Tijuana residents live in slums, which is higher than the average for a Mexican city (12-15% is typical). Most people in Tijuana do have running water, electricity and actual floors (not dirt lol). These stats are tracked by the United Nations, and the government of Baja California and Mexico.

@@jorgeortiz4485 30% is pretty bad. That’s roughly 600,000 people living in extreme poverty. I couldn’t even imagine living in those type of conditions without running water or electricity.

Everyone I've known who's been , never had an issue. It was fine

[@daMillenialTrucker]

I'm white, American, and a Truck driver. I wish I could move to tijuana but we all know i'd be a fat ass target for the cartel because of my job 🤣🤣

[@Travel_fulltime]

There’s nothing the cartel wants from you lol. They already have all the money the could possibly need, they basically own all the realstate and they control all the big businesses in the country. That’s like thinking tourists will get kidnapped by mafia in Vegas if they visit the city for a weekend. Basically everything people think they know about mexico is completely wrong in every way. Definitely as a tourist visiting. Doesn’t mean people don’t robbed. If you pull a bunch of money out and count it for everyone to see with Gucci shoes on that probably wouldn’t be a good idea. I know it sounds a bit stupid to say and It sure seems like everybody should know that but sadly they don’t. And I wasn’t saying “you” link in particular (just talking about people in general)

[@marcocalderon4660]

@@Travel_fulltime I’m born and raised in Tijuana. I’m a native you are totally wrong. I don’t know how long you lived here, but this is a violent place. A lot of innocent people have gotten killed & kidnapped. I have been to American cities it’s playtime when you compare it to here.

[@hagoun]

​@@marcocalderon4660 i agree with you. That whitty democrat does not know shit about violence in TJ and in Mexico. That impacts a lot of innocents People everyday, not like in the us. I went to a lot of american cities like Chi, La or NY, its piece of cake compare to Mexico, peace of cake.... Futhermore, a lot more tourists are killed in Mexico than in the us every year... the stats dont lie

[@swiggles4342]

What do you mean the ugly part? The whole city is ugly

[@Travel_fulltime]

The ugly part

So, there is this one mother that acts like a cowardly drill instructor towards her child, and God has nothing to do with the way she raised her kid. You guys need to ask God, Jesus Christ, and the Holy Ghost to show you who this mother is, her secrets, her motives, her lies, her excuses, the way she treats her child, what I’m talking about, and what to do about it! Share this!

[@geraldarnoult]

How dangerous is it? as high as your exaggeration wants to take it most Americans are ignorant about Mexico so you can say what you want all poor people are are not criminal.

Hello, May I share an Old Testament Verse with you from Daniel 7:14 "And there was given him dominion, and glory, and a Kingdom, that all people, nations, and languages, should SERVE Him; his dominion is an Everlasting dominion, which shall not pass away, and his kingdom shall not pass away, and His Kingdom that which shall not be destroyed." Also, can I share Isaiah 53:5 " But HE was WOUNDED For our TRANSGRESSIONS, he was BRUISED for our iniquities; the chastisement of our peace was upon Him, & with His STRIPES we are HEALED." God the Father loves you so much that He sent Holy Sinless Jesus (His Holy Son) to earth to be born of a virgin.Then, to grow up and die on a cross for our sins. He was in the tomb for 3 days, then Father God raised Holy and Sinless Jesus Christ (Y'shua) to Life! He appeared to people and went back to Heaven. We must receive Sinless Jesus sincerely to be God's child(John 1:12).After we get saved by grace through faith in Christ, if we truly love the Lord Jesus Christ, then we will obey Jesus(John 14:15). Mark 1:15 "And saying, the time is fulfilled, & the kingdom of God is at hand: Repent ye, & believe the gospel." Jesus said in John 14:15 "If you love Me, keep My commandments. "There's a real hell. It says in Revelation 21:8 "But for the cowardly, & unbelieving, & abominable, & murderers, & immoral persons sorcerers & idolaters & all liars, their part will be in the lake that burns with fire & brimstone..." Please sincerely receive Holy Jesus & put your true faith and trust in Him today and please repent. Will you have a Real encounter with Holy Lord Jesus (Y'shua is His Hebrew Name) and stay in a Genuine relationship with Him daily please?

The red light district is not safe. The streets there are populated by a criminal element and crooked cops. How can that be safe?
