Tepito in Mexico City - arguably the most dangerous black market in the world. At first glance, the no-go zone looks like any other market - yet the main thing you’ll find lurking down the alleyways behind it is death. It’s ruled by the “La Union” gang. The Tepito cartel deals in drugs, weapons and assassinations - anything that you can use money to buy. Enjoy all you No-Go Zoners 😉!

I an American and I used to live in Mexico, but not Mexico City. My Mexican friend and roommate would travel to Tepito every few weeks to obtain cheap jeans, aftershave or perfumes for his girlfriend. He also had worked in a bank within Tepito, so he knew the rules and what not to do. Once he asked me to go with him so that we could go to his parents' home in another part of the city afterwards for dinner. Upon arriving he told me to roll up the windows and lock the doors of the car. At each stop sign, we never came to a complete stop. We parked the car in a safer area and walked a few blocks to where we were going. Within seconds at the market, someone walked up to my roommate and demanded money, so my friend gave him a few coins. Not satisfied with the number of pesos, the robber grabbed my friend's necklace. No one said a word to me or even bothered me at all. After the robbery, we bought what we came to buy and left. Once we were far from Tepito, I joked that no one wanted to rob the Gringo wearing a Cruz Azul jersey-- Cruz Azul is the Mexico City's soccer team. When I asked my friend why he didn't try to stop the robbery, he said there were many people watching us at that moment. I have visited Mexico City many times since then, but I have no need to ever return to Tepito

Having lived in Mexico for 4 years, in Mexico City no less, my partner at the time (me: American, he: Mexican) absolutely outlawed going to Tepito for any reason at any time. No ifs ands or buts. Even if I was accompanied, too dangerous. And it's wild because you can be in the cathedral or Zocalo and walk a block or two over, and without knowing you've entered a super dangerous place.

I remember coming here when I was about 22 years old. I'm from the US but my dad lived in that area so he wanted to show us around. At first it was fine, everything seemed cool. But once the sun starts to set you really feel the tension. We started walking towards the outskirts of Tepito and let me tell you, I have never felt so unsafe in my life. Once I saw that even my dad felt uncomfortable I got scared. Some cops stopped us ( I guess you could tell we were tourists) and told us to leave the area ASAP.

Cops are corrupted and you do not ask to use the bathroom or go into the alleys. It's very dangerous specially if you are from USA.

I can understand places like this even though I live in New York City and in America things are different. I do come from a really tough place, very isolated,Red Hook Brooklyn NY. I can understand protecting your neighborhood and controlling the drugs and hustling. Everyone has their territory and if outsiders intrude then we'd all get together and fight for a common cause.

Interesting documentary

Nobody knows who's in charge of the gang, it would be certain death. But this is Mickey the leader.......🤣🤣🤣

When I was a student exchange in Mexico City, I would take the subway to this market everyday. It was awesome. This was in 1988 but I always felt safe and I bought all of my souvenirs from this market.

Mexico City was very different than it is today.

I went to Mexico in 1998 right after high school, right before I went to the police academy. In Mexico City, there was not one second where I felt like it was safe. Not one. I couldn't believe how little I really knew before going.

Places like this are all over the world 🌍🌎 and it's terrible how bad things can get, the violence.. sometimes it's necessary and for the greater good. Sometimes it's not a choice of right and wrong, or choosing good over evils, sometimes one has to choose the lesser evil of two sides.

I was searching up "Mexico" in the KZread search 10 minutes ago out of curiosity after having my fair encounters of people that are drug abusers around my neighborhood as I'm from Arizona and it brings me joy to watch free documentaries like this that Free Documentary gives us! ^.^ It gives us awareness that incidents like this happen globally way more than we think and never knew Tepito was such a dangerous neighborhood in Mexico City after my mother visiting Mexico City herself back in 2004 and always wanted to visit the country myself!

I have heard a DEA agent say that most of the guns in Mexico do not come from the United States, they come from Eastern Europe, which is why there are so many AK-47's and not AR-15's. He was saying most of the guns that got confiscated where Eastern Europen brand weapons. American brand weapons such as Colt, S$W, Sig Sauer are considered luxury items reserved for the top cartel dogs.

In any case, black markets and gangs become a necessity as long as we have large impoverished and neglected communities. We are all responsible.

I've always wondered how these photographers/videographers have the resources to get to the bosses for interviews, but the police don't.... It just doesn't make sense. IMO, it proves that the police are 100% involved in protecting the criminals. If the videographers can get to them, the police could easily do so too, they just choose not to.

And it was even mentioned that police corruption is a huge problem so they have a point in saying that the police do in fact protect these criminals.

As the other guy said, the documentaries are not produced by this channel, but I can imagine the original filmmaker just pays these guys money. Someone that kills people for money surely also gives an interview for the right price. What I additionally wonder tho is how they convinced them that they wouldn't leak their information to the police. Surely an ordinary contract saying "we wont snitch on you, we promise" wouldn't have much value for these guys, as they are lawless anyways.

Thanks!

It's interesting to see how unabashed they are about having conversations about murder while on camera. I assume your crew had to pay them off. Thanks for your efforts, definitely an interesting look into the life.

I've been to Tepito probably 10 times, 2 of them I made vlogs. I don't think it's the no go zone this film is making it out to be. It is absolutely dangerous IF you are involved in that kind of illegal activity. But if you go to Tepito just looking to buy some knock offs during the day and stay the main streets your biggest risk is just pick pocketing. It's one of the busiest markets in the country, full of life, streetfood, dancing and a bunch of really fun bars in the street. You can buy 1.5L michaladas and drink them anywhere. I've gone with the most innocent backpacking girl and not once did they feel in danger and always have a great time. Me and my roommate would cruise through Tepito if we were bored and walking around Centro and not even think twice about it. It is unfortunate it gets this reputation for crime, Yes all the crime is true and present, but when you go and you aren't looking for trouble it can be really enjoyable!
