INTERNATIONS EXPAT REPORT ON MEXICO

The resulting #1 out of 52 countries award is hard to square with the fact that Mexico ranked #49 out of 52 for safety.

Agreed. A high hippiness score and a high I-don't-feel-safe score seem a bit contradictory.

I certainly feel safer here than in the US. Not only less likely to be a crime or shooting victim, but also, I feel safer from the police. I do not however feel real confident about driving at night.
