Most people in the U.S. see Mexico as an essential partner to stop drug trafficking and illegal border crossings, even as they express mixed views of Mexico’s government, according to a new poll.
The poll from the Pearson Institute for the Study and Resolution of Global Conflicts and The Associated Press-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research found that about two-thirds of Americans see their southern neighbor as having at least a friendly relationship with the U.S. Relatively few within that group, or 16%, consider Mexico a close ally. Meanwhile, U.S. adults are more likely to have an unfavorable (38%) view of Mexico’s leadership than a favorable (12%) one. The remaining responded they did not have an unfavorable or favorable view or were not sure.
I’ve been to Cancun and Cozumel. I’ve had friends from Mexico.
I think what the previous comment is alluding to is that the tourist areas will be highly tailored to making tourist locations feel “welcoming”. This means that places will resemble USA and European countries with a slight spritz of Mexican stereotypes, so they won’t validly represent Mexican life. You might have a great experience, but it won’t be authentic Mexico.
To me, Cancun had a debauchery/spring break/Myrtle Beach feel to it.
