But right now they are focusing on cities and neighborhoods where the local people live, where you purchase houses.
I've gone to some of their social media sites and they are even talking about boycotting and protesting the FIFA match next year in Mexico City. They are not happy with all the remodeling of the airport and other areas for "visitors" and not caring about the citizens who live in the city and all the houses and apartments that will be rented out. Currently, Mexico City is a hot kettle on the stove ready to boil over. But you'll be ok. Enjoy your trip!
As a side note: As I had mentioned I move out of an apartment in CDMX and decided to rent a full-service hotel, that in no way can be construed as an apartment or somewhere the locals would want to rent. I just don't need any issues.
Ha, yeah, I would imagine that Pto Avent. wouldn't be a hotbed of protests. :-) Probably just not large enough of a town for maximum impact. And, Pto Avent proper doesn't really have houses/apts that would be purchased by foreigners (I would guess).
Not ideal for you, but at least you're still lucky enough to be living in Mexico !! :-)
After 3 dozen or so trips to Q Roo over the years (& counting) our hope is to at least spends our winters down there at some point. (fingers crossed) (in a vacation rental, of course, so I guess we're part of the problem
)
