MOST of the issues in Mexico are Mexican on Mexican, The only worry for foreigners is going into the WRONG place or getting caught in the cross fire, and as I recall that happens in cities like MIAMI, NY, LA.
I agree that living in Mexico City, especially someone who APPEARS to have money is not the best choice. But there are other places in Mexico to live that are better, I Live in CANCUN. We dont have much problem here with the shootings and drugs, simply because this city brings in more than 50% of the entire countries money from Tourism. With almost 1million people in the city they have more than 4k city and state cops here.
When you go into any city that has crime, and Hrmmm. They ALL DO, you have to be careful. If crime were a reason to NOT LIVE some place. NY LA and MIAMI would be EMPTY.

I really dont understand where you get off comparing the crime level in NYC to parts of mexico, tell this great story to the parents of 100's of girls who where kidnapped in mexico never to be seen again, nuevo laredo has about 300,000 people living there vs nyc 8 million and there where more murders in nuevo laredo in 06 than in NYC, I mean numbers and facts dont lie.
Im happy you are doing well but to say its all great overthere is stupid, its very dangerous now and obviously only in certain areas and people should really do their homework before going there.
