My experience of Mexico is that the foreground Isn't Even That Bad I've never walked into the truly no-go areas, but I've walked around 'working class' areas of CDMX, Monterrey, Guadalajara, SLP... it's not terrible. Yeah, it's rough and hot and dusty. But it's not awful.

I agree. For the most part, it looks worse from above

You buy your 2 million dollar condo in Bosque Real and your view is splattered with grey favelas

Interesting to the class divide discourse in real time between the two sides of the districts

You should see the difference between "La independencia" and "San Pedro Garza Garcia" too, in monterrey, MX.

Not even as far as San Pedro… I stayed in mirador/centro. La independencia is right across the bridge and even that’s day and night

Que idiota comentario, como si en la Ciudad de México fuese el único lugar donde se nota las diferentes versiones de las clases sociales.

The poorer or more humble version is the overwhelming majority (80 %). Even if we try to sell the idea that the other side is the real one, the Mexican reality is that; just like in the rest of Latin America. We’re an average Latin American country; that’s the truth!

Guadalajara is just like this, got the villas in the lower section and then wealthy homes ontop of a hill looking over the villas

That part of Mexico City used to be a garbage dump. Due to the city's growth, the dump was closed and the upscale area called Santa Fe was created. The people who lived around it used to make a living by scavenging in the garbage.

Keeping the poor so close helps to remind you to do not blink. Appreciate what you have and never stop or you go down.

Kinda looks like ‘the roofs are red and white’ then signals something different than what it is. Downtown I wouldn’t really walk alone at night, but outside just seems ‘normal ?

In my opinion, these areas aren’t “dangerous” they are just poorer.
