"There is a lot of crime here, but we see very little of it, as the "tourist" areas a somewhat sheltered from it. We don't have a lot of trouble with pickpockets or muggings.

There is some amount of problem with people stealing copper pipes and wires from roofs," said a member in Mazatlan, Mexico.
