Mexico is inexpensive and the weather is nice. I don't know what you mean by "dumpster fire". You gotta steer clear of the hot spots (such as Juarez) and just not get involved. Most people are super nice.

But over the past ten years, there have been several well-covered attacks in tourist towns on both coasts. I'm not saying you can't still have a good time, but there are just no low-risk places in Mexico any more, and the cops are not likely to be of much help unless your interests align with those of the drug cartels.
