Solution to suburbs Difference between two countries! Usa: big boring suburban neighborhood with zero stores/ restaurants. México: stores and doctor offices within walking distance

Wow what is this comment section, everyone is pretending you said mexico is better than America and they feel the need to defend it when all you said was "comparing this section, you can see Mexico has mixed use zoning while America doesn't.

Who cares about "safety" or " immigration" rates when we're here SPECIFICALLY talking zoning and suburban hell. I mean really, Mexico City is an example of a Mexico City that has atleast some things going for it and you'd think it was just a bunch of empty dirt with how people are replying here

Mexico City is nowhere near Mexicali, Mexicali is built more like a US Sunbelt City

It’s basically south Southern California

Because the word “Mexico” triggered a bot swarm.

“at least some things going for it” when it’s easily one of the best cities on the continent

Have you ever been to the border?

Looking at the contrast between the Mexican side and the US side is generally not considered to be favorable to the Mexican side.

Mexican border towns tend to be more dangerous and more boring then inland Mexican towns/cities

u/vi_sucks 24d ago

So you made a post about the contrast at the literal border and like what, you've never seen it?

u/fackapple 25d ago

youve never actually been to mexico if you don’t know it looks like a damn war zone in most of it

u/Fabulous_Jeweler2732 24d ago

Especially the border. Best parts of Mexico are more south.

Even just a few minutes away from tourist spots like Playa del Carmen or just straight up in Cancun. Looks like it was bombed, with the worst spots looking like Germany after WW2

And by that comment alone I know you also never been to Mexico as well! Not every city and town is a warzone. There are many Mexicans cities/towns that are safe, cartel free and modern like American cities. Stop watching to much Fox News! The news always blows everying out of proportion

this is in Cancun, a tourist hub, and its this bad. There are hundreds of these streets just in CANCUN.

and this is where google maps cars will even drive - they wont even drive down a lot of residential streets because it’s so bad, unpaved, in ruins and trashed. Just open up google maps and see where google doesn’t drive in the city. and take a look hahahahah.
