We stayed at Bentsen Palm Village in Mission for the last 8 years and never had any problems. The park is adjacent to the Bentsen Rio Grande State Park and just a half mile from the river. Also, the state park has NEVER had any incidents relating to illegals in the park. I'm sure that there are some illegals moving through the area sometimes, but not the drug war types. The Border Patrol is very visible and they always do a great job. We see TV stories fairly often about drug busts along the valley, but never any violent stuff. I always felt safer there than I do in many big cities!
Bentsen Palm Village does have a fence around it and locked gates at night to make everyone feel safer and to prevent pilferage.
