I mean, with how many white folks are moving there you can start getting an idea that crime is not as bad as media spins it.

Crime happens everywhere afterall and it ain't like you're dodging rockets being fired at every intersection.

That said, I'm sure it's going to drive real estate price up in the area if you already own property there.

Lemongrass, cherries, alkaline water
In leafy, walkable quarters such as Roma, Condesa, Centro and Juarez, rents are soaring as Americans and other foreigners snap up houses and landlords trade long-term renters for travelers willing to pay more on Airbnb. Taquerias, corner stores and fondas — small, family-run lunch spots — are being replaced by Pilates studios, co-working spaces and sleek cafes advertising oat-milk lattes and avocado toast.

And English — well, it’s everywhere: ringing out at supermarkets, natural wine bars and fitness classes in the park.

The same dynamic exists here in the US to a degree :yeshrug: people come from all over the globe, at times with little regard for the cultures and communities that they live, transforming neighborhoods, just trying to create the best life they can for themselves. Did people think the reverse was never going to happen?

Look what the cac has to say

"A marketer who works a tech job that is remote, she was tired of living in San Francisco, where every conversation began with, “What do you do?”
“I like being in vibrant cities that have multiple cultures that mix well, where there’s good food and good energy and dancing and art,” she said. “It reminds me of being in a more friendly, more clean at times, Brooklyn.”
