Your Boat
Sorry Livin', not trying to be rude or evasive to your your initial question. To answer your question as to why you would be at a disadvantage not being a Mexican National. Just re-read what I wrote. Ex-pats, tourists, gringos, whatever you want to call "us" are always more of a target for pay-offs...

Builder/Contractor in PV
I am looking to interview builders/contractors for a remodel in Conchas Chinas. Does anyone have a personal recommendation?
I am looking for quality work, dependability, & someone who comes in at the original cost estimate. ALRIGHT DON"T LAUGH!!!
Thank you.

Banking in PV
Is there a Chase Bank in PV?
If not, which bank would be best to have funds transferred from the US to PV?
I am not sure how long or often I will be in PV, so I want to be able to wire money periodically rather than monthly

When you say "El Pitillal" are you talking about a street in Viejo Vallarta or a different area? Sincerely, I don´t know which Puerto Vallarta you´re talking about... I live here 10 months a year since Jan 2007 and I have never had any problem, and I have never seen or heard about any situation with...

I don't consider myself a "regular" on this site either. Just joined about 6 months ago & have been watching a variety of posts in different areas. I am in the process of purchasing a very small place in Conchas Chinas & find the information most helpful. I can't lie, posts about violence have made ...

Aploj, Thank you for your reply. I am just buying a small condo, approx. 1302 square feet (still becoming acclimated to metric being from the subborn US!). Maybe too small for your guy? Thank you for the info on taxis. I know that I could do the walk, but the only road I know if is quite busy. Thank...

Transportation from Conchas Chinas to Viejo Vallarta
Is there a safe (i.e. traffic) route to walk from Conchas Chinas to Viejo Vallarta?
Is there a taxi number that can be called for pick-up in Conchas Chinas?
Gracias.

I agree with Mikeypv. I live in Saginaw, MI rated by the FBI as one of the highest per-capita violence producing cities in the US. I have never seen or been the victim of violence. In fact, other than property crime, I know of only one person killed, a victim of domestic violence. As far as PV, I am...

Is this restaurant still open? We had an excellent meal there about 5 years ago, but haven't been there since.
What street is it on?
Thank you.

I consider your response that the large Cartels having a vested interest in tourism for money laundering purposes to be the most compelling argument for a travelers safety to PV!

Katnsocal, I've been traveling to Mexico for almost 20 years and have NEVER experienced a negative incident with the possible exception of an attempted mordita that did not occur because of my stupidity of the language. You are right, the "yeah it happened to me too" posts in and of themselves are o...

Katnsocal, This was in the Sayulitalife forum. You're right, it is not logical to draw conclusions of what happened in Cancun clear across the country except that there has been escalated drug violence across Mexico and when one sees the topic posted in a general forum and then moved without explana...

I think you need to provide or get your friend to provide a description of the violence. Violence is a broad term if you don't have any specifics. There was an incident closer to Tepic a month or two ago that involved a fake roadblock. It involved locals who were pulled over and robbed of their per...
