This is so sad. With all the natural resources and history and so many good people Mexico should be a gem! Mexico City is such a beautiful place, even their post office is gold, check it out! If you go there, get a nice rental and a guide. There are places I would not go without one, but I never felt scared in any way, just a bustling metropolis with fantastic food for very little money. The leadership and crime culture have no one to answer to.
