I get the feeling that the mongering scene in MDE, today, is like the scene in Buenos Aires 10+ years, ago.
I'd do a night or two at the mansion for the experience. I am definitely down with eating local food. It sounds like I should make my base of operations in Parque Lleras and plan my excursions from there.
I am quite comfortable in adverse environments and despite my woeful language skills have not got myself into a situation from which I could not extricate myself. That said, there was one time in London that I was pleased to be in such good shape and that I could outrun the security team from the clip-joint in Soho.
I'm looking forward to bringing my plans together and would happily buy you a beer or two.

If the violent crime rate is up because of gang activity, this directly affects you if you A. Are a gang member, or decide to start your own gang in Medellin, be. If you are trying to become a major drug dealer in Medellin or see. If you decide to go looking for gang members to pick fights with. If you meet any of these conditions, it doesn't matter if you are in El Centro or El Poblado. If you don't meet any of those conditions your basic risk remains the same as it was last year, whether you are in El Centro or El Poblado.

"There were nine reported homicides of foreigners in Medelland in 2016. We'll look at these in detail to demonstrate that a majority of foreigner homicides in the city tend to be the result of resisting robberies or being involved in shady activities.
On June 4, Mexican national Jess Estrada de La Rosa, aged 48, was shot dead in Beland when he reportedly tried to prevent the theft of a motorcycle in the LOS Alpes barrio.
June 15, Israeli Shay Azran, aged 37, was killed with a firearm near the Exito in Laureles. He was allegedly involved in drug and sex tourism according to news reports.
June 16, Danish Tomas Willemoes, aged 41, was shot to the head in Provenza near Parque Lleras in El Poblado at about 9:30 pm. News reports claim this was a murder for hire so it may have involved shady activities.

I'm sure these areas are still much safer than Centro, but take care in these nicer areas as well.
Also, I'm still not convinced that Centro is significantly more dangerous this year. Could the statistics involve the rival-gangs at an increased war with each other? Maybe some of you Centro vets can chime in on what you're seeing on the Centro streets lately.
