Would like to know if anyone has experience with park security in South Texas down towards Brownsville and Harlingen
There are some very nice homes in both those communities, there are also some very run down sections. If I was to pick, I would pick Harlingen and the towns to the east if you're concern about your surroundings.
As you read the prior posts you'll notice a lot of fencing and gates being talked about. You won't see a lot of late night walking outside those parks either. If you don't mind living inside a compound at night time, and enjoying your parks activities and neighbors then no problems.
As far as LEO's go, remember a police officer and an immigration officer has two different jobs. It's up to an immigration's officer to what extent they wish to get involved in a police type incident. Their charter is different then an officers. Don't assume if you're in a fender bender that they will pull over and give assistance. You'll see more immigrations officer to the west of Harlingen and in southern Brownsville.
