Comments on: Safety in Mazatlan http://www.thetruthaboutmexico.com/2009/03/safety-in-mazatlan/ Voices from South of the Border Wed, 16 Nov 2011 19:24:01 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.2.1 By: Sandi Reese http://www.thetruthaboutmexico.com/2009/03/safety-in-mazatlan/comment-page-1/#comment-630 Sandi Reese Fri, 24 Sep 2010 23:06:34 +0000 http://www.thetruthaboutmexico.com/?p=48#comment-630 Nancy, I very much appreciate your common sense post. I have been to Mazatlan every year for the last eight, and will be going twice this year. We've never felt unsafe there, if we did we wouldn't return each year. We have fallen in love with the kindness of the locals and their genuine friendliness and of course the beautiful beaches and the Shrimp! I feel safer in Mazatlan than in most American cities. Mazatlan is not a polished Mexican resort city like so many others, it has a wonderful unique charm. If you want a great holiday that you will enjoy, pay a reasonable price for the experience, and in doing so will be helping hard working Mexican people support their families - go to Mazatlan. Nancy, I hope that people will read your post as sincere from someone who lives in this beautiful city and consider your sage comments when they next hear the news media spouting the usual doom and gloom. People, turn off the TV and go live your life, start by walking on a beach and listen to the waves. Nancy, I very much appreciate your common sense post.
