If I was forced to live in Tijuana I would have Dr. Kevorkian on speed dial. Vancouver easily..is this for real? Vancouver is one of North America's finest cities.
Yeah, Mexico City is so cool, LOL. Such a good city huh? It's a dump man. What city are you going to praise next, Mumbai?
Go study up on 3rd World Nations and get back to me.
Uh, have you ever been to Mexico City? If not, then don't bother sharing your opinion on places you don't know jack about...Oh and Mumbai actually has some nice areas as well...you know how I know that? Because I've actually travelled around the world in my lifetime. Maybe you you should stick to talking about hockey in Minnesota.
Ok, so it's not a Tulsa, I guess it looks more like a generic Atlanta... Still embarrassing and subpar for "a city bigger than NYC".
Whatever dude, Minnesota is home to more Global 500s than Mexico City. They should stick to smogging up the air and eating tacos or whatever they unproductivley do in Mexico... Or just jumping borders into our country or whatever Mexicans do, because they certainly don't excel at being active business leaders or econimically satisfying people.
Cesar Chavez eat your heart out
You are a close minded individual full of sterotypical generalizations. I'm sure you have had your share of Taco bell Tacos, lol.
Now for a lil more insightfully truth of Mexico. Mexico is considered a second world nation, not third and this is largely due to their government.
Mexico is a Wealthy nation steeped in resources, Unfortunately Mexico's government and ultra rich don't believe in Taxation much, it has the lowest taxation rate in the Americas. More Taxiation would put the country in a better position for all it's citizens, which would decrease the influx of it's lower class citizens illegal entry into the U.S.
Despite it's Government as a whole, it's not as bad as you claim it to be. I have been all over Mexico, have seen the good and bad, of course avoided the bad side as much as possible.
I'ts beautiful, the pyramids, cathederals, castles and plazas looks like Europe. Beautiful people all over, a very diverse nation. The border towns on the other hand are not anything like the interior cities.
The richest man in the world is a Mexican! I would not call him unproductive. Mexico is poor and it is rich and labeling an entire populace unproductive and economically unsatisfying, I wouldn't go to that extreme.
there is no way you could ever have a night like you would in tj in vancouver
Did you know Vancouver is known for having the most beautiful prostitutes in the world? Not to mention marijuana is practically legal and there are many great dance clubs. It also has a very glamorous feel to it, people have said it is like Canada's LA, in terms of feel, etc.
That said, TJ is definitely its own beast. Its also very dangerous and has been for years. I love Mexico, but Tijuana is just not a safe place at night, not at all. Anyone who tells you otherwise is lying.
Some nice improvements along the way: they've got a big section of downtown all torn up, they're finally widening the sidewalks (it's about time!), narrowing the streets, no more street parking in that area. Hooray!
Some time ago, they widened the sidewalks on Revolution, and the traffic is now restricted to two lanes, making the sidewalks more plaza-like. Another nice improvement.
I just love the way that city brings me down to earth in such a beautiful way.
Seeing all those poor people with smiles on their faces (with a minimum wage of $5 day I'd be walking around with tears in my eyes) is equal to any number of slick, shiny skyscrapers.
As always, never felt unsafe walking around that city.
Can I live on $700. per month in Vancouver? Can I get a nice araprtment for under $300. per month?
If so, then it is off to Vancouver !
