Thank you very much Karla. I don’t see there is much to experience there other than their annual fiesta but I’m sure they have more to offer than what I know. Thanks again for watching.

That was so interesting AND timely! This is going to spark some interesting conversations with my family. Thanks for educating me about something entirely new! I do find myself wondering if the cartel left with all the politicians?

Hi Bonnie! The cartel did not leave without leaving casualties at first.But ultimately, with no one left to bribe or corrupt, the cartel eventually went elsewhere. Thanks so much for watching.

How cool. The beauty and fairness of the people never cease to amaze me. Thanks for the education, how special that place is.

I have heard of several other towns in Mexico like this I believe.

If you get a chance, Visit the Lago de Camecuaro in Michoacan.

@@timelesstravelclub6240 Yes it is very beautiful. Maybe on your next trip to Michoacan. If you do make it in the future, try and rent one of their small boats ( they rent hourly) and enjoy the tranquility of the balneario and the nature that surrounds it. But definitely avoid visiting during a Mexican Holiday season because it gets packed and noisy.

From what I understand they have completely rid themselves of corruption whatsoever. There is no meddling from the government and the organized crime elements have left years ago since there is no one left to bribe.

It's a safe place, but you need to know, is not a tourist place, it's just a small town, with a few activities and you need to speak Spanish. it's not like Cancun, Los Cabos, or other cities where foreigners are used to finding people who speak English. This town is for people who want a quiet and safe place.

I hope you go back after the pandemic to see the festival. I'm very interested.
