      I would say more like Houston with Mountains. Dallas has more of a “Downtown” where all the tall buildings are concentrated. In MTY and HOU the skyscrapers are spread out and just kind of random and they don’t really connect well.

    The way I look at things in general for Mexico as far as cities:
    1) Monterrey is Mexico's engine. It's where stuff gets made. It's a city that works....much like the Midwestern USA...think the old Detroit or Chicago. The only difference is the mountains.
    Mexico City is like Washington DC and NYC combined. It's the equivalent to Manhattan and Washington DC's National Mall.
    Puebla is the Grand Dame of the "South". It is maybe like Atlanta.
    Merida is probably like Savannah GA.
    Cancun is like "Florida".
    Guadalajara is like Mexico's Silicon Valley... California
    Puerto Vallarta is maybe something like either Southern California or San Diego. Loc Cabis also fits this.
    Queretaro, that is maybe something like Seattle, Boise, Omaha, or Kansas City.. difficult to say.
    Tijuana, if it gets its crime rate under control, would maybe fit something like Seattle or Anchorage. Don't know.
    This is my take. I know it's not totally accurate. I do not even want this to be absolute. I know I am not perfect... though I have traveled extensively in Latin America. I am not a Mexican, and many apologies if I offended anyone.

    I've never heard of this city to be a vacation destination, but a co-worker is there currently so I needed to see why they'd go there vs a beach area that is more commonly chosen. I have to say the natural and manmade landscape is just remarkable! The pricing of things just has me 🤯! That chocolate strawberry muffin that was 1.60 US$ would most likely be $8-$12 (depending on where in the US you are buying it). And $42.00 US per night for that Airbnb would be well over $100 a night in a US location.

I’ve been to Tijuana’s red light district many times which is supposed to be the most dangerous part of town. Many strip clubs even around the United States are dangerous too so I’m not that concerned. Just gotta be careful.

    The historical aspect of Monterrey is interesting but not grand...it was a small town historically compared to major cities like CDMX, Guadalajara, Queretaro and Pueblo. However, in the 20th century because it became a major industry town and today it's a financial hub as well. It is a very spread out city though, the skyscraper density is actually in the neighboring municipality of San Pedro.
