Mexico safer than American cities? Have you been reading the news?
My wife's cousin is a professor at a university in Mexico. About a year ago he sold his condo to move into a smaller condo that's in a gated complex with
armed security. That's for a native. When he visited us in the U.S. about three years ago the idea was raised for us to follow up with a visit to him. He looked at us and said, "She can come if she feels lucky. Americans are not safe in Mexico -- you don't come."
