I do agree with Anonymous on Jan 25, 2024, 100%.

Mexico City is really unsafe. I know this because I live here. The foreign people leaving positive comments only visit and stay in the nice touristic areas which are Condesa, Roma, Juarez, Napoles... If they only come out of their bubble they would see reality.

Mexico city is amazing, completely safe no thefts or murders the entire time I was there. Shocking because you hear all these terrible things about it when its not so bad. If I were you I

Mexico City has gotten safer in the last couple of years btw.

Sorry, not sure where these people are getting their experiences from. MC is perfectly fine. Its all fear mongering. Thousands upon thousands of foreigners here in MC and no issues.

Oh please to the anonymous person on Dec 19, 2019 the Middle East is much safer than any Latin American country, you are safer even in a place like Iran/Saudi Arabia than Mexico City or Argentina, there is no people with guns or random cartels blowing up cars and beheading people, the ME places with those things are done by TERRORISTS or because they are at WAR not because the local people just do that for fun like LatinAM countries... Turkey,Iran,Saudi,UAE,Morocco,Azerbaijan,Armenia,Georgia,Lebanon,Qatar,Oman,Jordan,Tunisia,Israel and Kuwait literally any of these countries is safer than LatinAM, you don't need "a type 3 armored car" in ME and if you don't believe me here is a video of a European woman walking around alone at night in Baghdad Iraq, a country that has been through hell and yet is still safer than LatinAM https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Us9raH83h7c

I am a spaniard who lived in Mexico DF for more than five years. Mexico is a nice country and mexicans are nice, willing to help at all times and fair people. But dont get wrong yourself: is a dangerous country.
The level of corruption and lack of trustability of police is outstanding, specially the "local", "transit" and "judicial" police. The only one you can have moderate trust is Federal police.
The level of crime and violence is moderate during daytime and severe during the night. Do not travel by car during the night, this is a must. Risk of kidnapping is moderate to high at all times, and the resolution of 90% of the cases is really sad.
In the past in CDMX it was different from one area to other (Polanco to city-centre or Interlomas to Santa Fe, Tlanepantla to Naucalpan...) but nowadays is much more indiscriminate... anyway avoid Tepito and downtown areas during the night. Some cities and states are much more complicated (Sinaloa, Tamaulipas, Veracruz, Guerrero, Guadalajara) than others (Yucatan, Chiapas) and is directly related to the cartels internal fights.
If you are going to move to MX for a certain period, consider to buy a type 3 armored car (second hand they are inexpensive), be aware of your surroundings at all times, avoid night street walks, do not use public transportation (street taxis, "peseros" and "combis"), just "Uber" and pay special attention to kids at all times in malls and by the street.
Rest is fine
