Hola todos,

I am a virgin to this site and rarely post on other forums. Moving to Mexico is in my sights...two years from now, I currently live in El Paso Texas. My question for those of you who have made the big move (I'm envious) is, what cities would you consider least violent, and best to raise a family in the current condition that the country seems to be in with the cartels/drug wars etc....and is the violence currently as bad as US media portrays it? I understand Mexican culture, legal system, reliability on police and all that is far different from that of the US..that is not my concern. My question is simply are there still places safe to raise a family, live, and work/own a business?

Thank you for all and any response.
I have given up on the American way of life and thinking...just waiting to make the big move!
