Used to be the three-letter airport code for Puerto Vallarta. Maybe it still is.

sorry, Puerto Vallarta
I'm guessing the tourist towns far from the border are better.
A sailing forum talks about Pirates and many more problems in S-America,
But they don't have the tourism that PVR does per town.
A friend living in PVR for 20 years would not keep his wife there if it was as bad as some of these articles.I'm not an alarmist, I just think this should be identified as a border drug problem.
I blame the drug users too, they are surely selfish Anti-Human.
I belong to the Skywagon club where we have members flying small planes down to Baja every year.The drug guys stealing planes is a problem too.
happy day

wingit- We've already hashed that Joint Forces report on another thread. I haven't been down to PV for about eighteen months. People I know who live there haven't mentioned any great change in the civil order. Just as with any big town, there will be occasional criminal activity. From friends I know in the travel industry, discretionary travel is way down. Places with high concentrations of time shares are faring better, as people are more likely to redeem their investment.

Thanks, wingit.

You too, Ken.

Where's Capt. Mike lately? He and wingit could probably have some good discussions.

Elton John just moved down there so it is safe for gay millionaires at least. Maybe he has armed houesboys though
