From the photos I see and the people I have corresponded with there seems to be plenty of RV'ers even with huge class A's still crowding the RV Parks of at least BAJA. And the beaches. From what I can tell, and there are others out there with more direct and recent experience than me, there are some nice parks with good infrastructure.

Paying in dollars instead of pesos for a site as a reason for not going to Mexico seems to be an odd reason to me as one poster wrote. If there is one price, ie $25 US Dollars or its equivalent in Pesos, Why not pay in Dollars? For the park owner it's a great hedge against inflation. I can understand why they ask this.

I recently looked at all the stats for tourism in Mexico and it is up dramatically this year. I have to assume that some part of that increase is also RV'ers.

I dont think it is quite the drastically black and white picture being painted by some posters here.

The last time I was in Mexico was quite a few years ago and I flew in then, before that I drove a VW camper van down the EAST coast, this was before there was really any discernible road south of San Felipe. For many years we visited and camped in the Baja (since I grew up in So Cal.)

I have however been corresponding with some folks who are there now (BAJA) and seeing their photos. I have also been doing some research. I dont recall ASKING questions about security because it doesnt really concern me that much ( I have been much worse places security -wise), however I may have mentioned it in a few posts.

I think I made it clear I was speaking, not from recent personal experience but only quoting research and those that are there now.
