Well, Cabo is known for being a major drug cartel corridor and has had increasing levels of violence for years now. The main tourist areas are generally considered "safe" though.
Have to LOLOLOLOL at this because the exact SAME statement can be made for Negril/Jamaica:
"Well NEGRIL is known for being a major drug cartel corridor (weed and cocaine exports especially in the 70's and 80's, not so much now) and has had inicreasing levels of violence FOR YEARS now. The main tourist areas are GENERALLY considered "safe" though."
That last part, well...I will grant you that recently things have been supposedly more sketchy than usual as far as crimes of opportunity on the beach and up the lanes off of West End Road.
I say "supposedly" because after that horrific week of shootings and robberies people came out of the woodwork all over the internet to report on crimes that had happened to them, a friend of theirs, a friend of a friend or another that they read on Tripadvisor. So who the hell really knows about "escalation"? What the locals there say is that yes, its worse than usual FOR THIS TIME OF YEAR. All this type of shyte generally happens in the summer months...
