My friend and auto mechanic came from there around 1987 I think. He’s more American than many of my friends and relatives. Drives a Chevy p/u and a Chevy Suburban. Also a Harly Davidson. You gotta hear the stories I got over the decades from him.
The gov’t got real tough on crime because you could not even have a business you got robbed every day. Lots of rapes and kidnappings. Sometimes they would just kill people for nothing. He says the place has been doing great getting better for years he started vacationing there years ago too.
