Ciudad Juarez - 2003 Reports

[DreamingEagle]

I should hasten to add there are also a lot of good people living there, too, but why mess with all of the problems?

Most all of the neighborhoods away from el centro are safe, even the colonias. You can shop in the stores, walk the streets, and, as long as you are a good neighbor, you are going to be accepted as such. But that area in el centro under discussion, and, in fact, all of the neighborhoods around el centro is as described, a haven for drug addicts and the worse elements in the city. I should have been clearer when I responded.

Okay, thanks for the info on the Col. Chavena. My weekly excursion takes me into Col. Mexico 68 which is out Lopez Mateos and Carlos Amaya, then off of Tzetzales a mile or so. It's a poor neighborhood (no shit, some might say), but I have been visiting my chica there for over a year and have absolutely no fear of going where some fear to tread. I might be stupid, but I try not to do stupid things. I just "blend" in with my silver hair and 1979 Mercedes. Maybe someday I'll catch my lunch, but I'm still not afraid. This is not to say that I would rush into some place like Col. Chavena. I can't wait to get my chica and her girls over to El Paso, but it's slow going. In the mean time, I just keep "blending" in.
My chica's daughters always surround me when we go shopping at S Mart or where ever. They never feel "funny" for being with me even though once in a while we'll get a stare from a few well-meaning individuals as I'm trying to blend in with my silver hair and very white complexion. I AM a little careful as the 13 year-old (a beautiful young lady) likes to hold my hand in public once in awhile if we are alone shopping at the store. I am aware that there could be a problem if I'm caught with a 17 year-old or younger. But we are not in El Centro - we are usually shopping in S Mart or Walmart.
I hope all you fine mongers had a great Thanksgiving and did not overdo any eating habits. Thanks.

ElPasoGentleman,

More than a few drivers and my amigas at Pink Lady have intimated ( some in no uncertain terms) that the area you were inquiring about has a drug and crime reputation. Three of the girls that I know well at Pink Lady have been robbed in the daytime , as they were going to work.

At the end of October, my last visit, there was a substantial federale presence on the street, but I didn't feel anymore comfortable there.

Buena suerte.

Candy at Genesis is, or at least was, one of the friendliest, most accomodating girls I ever went to the room with in Juarez...a really nice lady....

If you're ever in Ano Neuvo, you might look for a girl named Rosie. She's a little on the chunky side, but not much. Not super good-looking either. But she's a clean girl and has a cute personality. She has one of the firmest bodies I know of. Even her breasts are very firm. You'll notice right away. And I hear she really enjoys her work!

[DreamingEagle]

I never got with that girl, but she is one cool, tall drink of water, isn't she. I saw her once, declined because I had business elsewhere,a nd returned twice for her when she was not working. Hope you find her again.

[Clydesdale]

Does anyone know where Candy went? Last time I was at Genesis they said she didn't work there any more.

I agree with DE on the lockable garage or fence. Even in the most respectable neighborhoods the houses are fenced, with sturdy high fences, and locked. A car alarm is a good idea too.......

Hey,

Thank you for the info "Dreamingeagle"

Appreciated.

According to the map, this neighhood is southwest of el centro between 16 de Septiembre and Municipio Libre. If you were to take Mariscal south from el centro and turn east on Emiliano Carranza or Pablo Nidar you would be driving through the middle of Chevaña as shown on the map.

The new Pink Lady is in that general area. From what I saw of the neighborhood it didn't look too good, but I was not focusing on those particular streets. You would just have to check it out. I would think you would definitely want a lockable garage for your car or at least a lockable fence no matter where you live in Juarez.

Does anyone know the approximate location of the Colinias Chavena? Or Chavana? It's only about 10 minutes drive from the downtown bridge from what I understand. If you know the location, do you know if it's a decent neighborhood for family type living - kids, etc.?

Thanks and Happy Turkey Day!

Hello,

I've been checking this forum our for awhile, but this is my first post. I have a question for all of you, I speak no Spanish, and will be going solo to El Centro, how much difficulty will I have, I don't want trouble or want to get ripped off. I have been there before, but that was a few years ago, and I was with someone who spoke the language. Any advice would be appreciated.

I paid $163.50 for 16, 20mg pills, including postage from England. Mastersmarketing.com. Brand name Tadafil. Reliable. I have no real problem, and seem to get best results with 1/3 to 1/2 a pill. 36 hours seems right, less side effect than from the V. I believe it has been approved stateside this week, but at 16 bucks for delivery and no script required why bother.

The price for it is approximately is $15 for a tablet.
