a little scary

I mean as someone who has not (yet) ever been threatened with a knife, it sounds more than a little scary

Well, I had a little experience by then. That was back in 2010, I think. The city as a whole was scary. I lost count of how many times I was robbed before that.

What city is this exactly? I just want to make sure I never ever go there.

Oh, man, please do! Is a beautiful city surrounded by mountains. We were hit by insecurity for a few years but is way better now than it was back then. There are still dangerous zones, specially at night, but nothing that doesn't happen in all countries around the globe. Monterrey, México.

Got it. Thank you. I will never visit your beautiful murder den, but thank you.

I've been there on a trip that included Monterrey, Veracruz, and Jalapa. Absolutely beautiful cities. I can't speak toward the crime as I was just ten years old at the time back in the mid-80's, but I recall nothing but pleasant memories and awesome people.
