Lots of people ask me this or similar questions man, and I kind of like it because that way
I can give another point of view.
So yeah, I would't object to it being considered among the most dangerous places,
lots of trafficking, lots of 'narcos', almost daily kidnapings or sequestering of people (mostly wealthy and governmental [and corrupt] people), drug cartel related shootings now and then, be-headed and mutilated bodies, corpses found in the mornings hanging from bridges,
even different factions of the police force get into shootings with one another
for varied reasons, so yeah lot of corruption on all levels. Although I wouldn't say tourist are particularly targeted, I'd say it's better to be safe than sorry.
All this being said, it is not the Middle East or something like that, it's not like if you go out side you'll get a bullet (it has happen many times these last few years given the circumstances).
Although this environment has also contributed to it being more crime in other aspects, like stealing, armed assaults and robbery, lots of junkies and lazy people that is up to no good,
there is also a lot of hard working people, I suppose, lol.
So as I said, we mostly live normal lives like any growing city, be a reasonable and correct person,
don't go looking for trouble because you will find it, even more in these times; most of the innocent people that get hurt do so because they where caught in the cross-fire for being in the wrong places or with the wrong people, see, the 'sicarios' (cartel gunmen) wont stop and ask who is who.
Obviously most of us here would prefer not having to worry (even if it's only a little) something might happen during our day,
and Thanks God me and those close to me haven't been greatly affected by the circumstances.

This is what I mean, there are no bullets flying over our heads,
besides this is a relatively tranquil neighborhood.
