I appreciate your input to me on the thread. I'm only communicating my expectation that nearly every border crossing is likely going through similar problems.
Whatever your terminology means, "border crossings", apparently they are talking visiting the city. Not much to visit in Palomas Mexico across from Columbus, New Mexico.
I know, Juarez City has one crossing that goes into Zaragoza. It's well off the beaten path from the rest of Juarez, it may well be near Fabens TX. at that. A lot of detail.
I certainly wouldn't expect some sort of constant as far as danger goes from border cities, at times, those cartels are indeed, fighting more in one town or city versus another.
They are, at times, fighting over shipping channels, shipping corredors such as in Juarez, the "Juarez plaza" <--- You can even look up that exact term", that's been a big hotspot in the drug wars. Thankfully, much less versus the full war there some years ago.
It's hardly as if all cities in the US represent the same danger, more so, when speaking about distinct areas of town.
