Best Answer

It really depends on the city you are going to. Northern cities such as Tijuana and Juarez are ridden with violence and are to be avoided at all costs.

Cities on central Mexico, as well as the most important resorts (Cancun, Los Cabos, Mayan Riviera) are pretty safe to go.

In general terms, Mexico has a rate of 18 homicides per 100,000 people. This puts Mexico as safer than say, Brazil (25) or Puerto Rico (26).

The Media only shows violence and bad news, they never show good things that happen in Mexico. Everyone that got the chance to visit Mexico from the year 2000 to the year 2012 (when the Cartels were most prominent in the news) they got to experience for themselves that Mexico is not a violent place. Mexico is a hidden paradise with the nicest people in the world that welcome every tourist with pride. Mexico is a hidden paradise clouded by the mass media, come see for yourself.
