I visit Mexico yearly (Married to a Mexican, from Monterrey) for a couple of weeks to a month. I never felt unsafe and greatly enjoy being there.
When my in-laws visit us (Europe) they were more worried about a terrorist attack than I am about cartels.
Mexico has a lot of violence in those cartel communities. But it mostly stays within those communities.
- serial_dev 7y agoThis demonstrates how much media controls our fears. Terrorist attacks in Europe happen rarely when they do happen they are in the news for weeks. While Mexico is being one of the most dangerous countries, people get kidnapped, killed, buried on a daily basis and they barely report the number of people killed properly in local newspapers, it doesn't even make it to national news.
- Insanity 7y agoYup Indeed. Both sides (EU) and Mexico are pretty safe for the average person though.
