I always notice that people discussing Mexico here only seem to discuss Tabasco, Cancun, and maybe Mexico City. We never discuss northern Mexican states such as Chihuahua, Coahuila, or Sonora.
How come northern Mexico is never discussed here? Is it because it isn't as popular with American tourists? Or maybe it's because there are people who think drug cartel ridden Ciudad Juarez and the border crossings represent that entire part of Mexico?

All of the northern states, especially the ones that border the US, have the highest murder rates in Mexico, and the highest crime rates as a result. That's pretty much why. Plus, the tourism opportunities are not as great as in the other areas, which are the tourist meccas of Mexico (not sure about Tabasco). Also, most Americans move to Mexico because of the weather AND cheap housing. We have the same weather as the northern states of Mexico, so it's not as interesting. SO, I guess it's similar to how no one talks about Tasmania or South Australia. Neither state is known for tourism, whereas Queensland, Victoria, and New South Wales get most of the threads

There's been little discussion ... because participants have little interest in that part of Mexico. It's not that difficult to understand.

Exactly. It's like I said in my post. People never talk about Tasmania or South Australia, because people have little interest in those states, even the Northern Territory hardly gets mentions. It's the same thing with Mexico's northern states
