    I have a couple of neighbors that are selling their homes in California, and one is moving to Cabo San Lucas and the other to GDL= Guadalajara, Mexico. I have a co-worker who retired and moved to GDL. I went to visit him back in the fall. GDL is so Beautiful. The homes are absolutely beautiful and modern. I give my props to the building designers and pool designers. The weather is like Los Angeles, California and so much Greenery. I loved it. It has grown so much since the last time I had been there in 1980 when I was 20 years old. I went with a couple of Buddies of mine which are no longer living. Miss them so much! Now I am 67, Boy how time fly's.

    Have you factored-in the strong Pesos exchange rate? as of today, it’s new high 1USD:16.7MX$, when you’re showing those numbers in US Dollars, look more like for 2 years ago, when 1USD was able to get 20 Pesos, but nowadays, expenses in Mexico pesos to US Dollar has increased at least 30% comparing last year

    To the narrator, accents in Spanish indicate the syllable stressed. In Spanish, the default stress is the second to last syllable. An accent indicates when another syllable should be stressed. With the name Cristobal, since there is no accent indicating otherwise, the stress falls on the “to” pronounced “toe” , as the second to last syllable.

The Mexican drug war (also known as the Mexican war on drugs an ongoingasymmetric armed conflict!!!! A Wave of Violence Terrorizes Mexico as Criminals Kill With Impunity The latest killings have left dozens of Mexicans dead and few held accountable despite insecurity being the public’s top priority by an overwhelmed mexican government! US tourists beware: Popular Mexico getaway plagued by drug cartel intimidation and violence Drug cartels in Mexico: How rampant violence is taking hold of the country Criminal organizations have splintered into more than 100 groups and are wreaking havoc on the population, with bodies dumped on streets, students kidnapped and schools forced to close due to shootings There is not a corner of Mexico where drug traffickers are not present. Gone are the years of the all-powerful drug cartels, which divided up large territories like pieces of cake and agreed to truces when mounting death tolls started to hurt business. More people are being killed than ever. And in some states, neither the presence of the Mexican army nor local authorities have been able to stop it. In Mexico, there are at least 150 organized crime gangs, according to the latest criminal map presented by a group of researchers from Mexico’s prestigious Center for Economic Research and Teaching (CIDE). This is a huge rise from 2006, when the number of drug gangs could be counted on the fingers of one hand.
