Posts: 169I don't speak much spanish
I don't speak much spanish and now I live in Medellin part time! Speaking spanish is over rated. You can use the translation programs on your cell phone. Even though very few people speak English there, most people are very cooperative. I would go to MDE.

Stray bullet from one of the 4 assassins hit and injured a 3rd guy in the leg, who was an autonomous motorcyclist driving in the area at the time of the hit.

The detailed answer:
I spent 9 months living in Poblado and frequently walked from the south end at La Frontera, to Parque Lleras, or walked back. Several times I made the walk after midnight (waiting until the bars close to try and catch a taxi is a bad idea). At no time did I have any problems.
I've spent the last 2 months living in Laureles. During this time, I've spent a lot of time walking around. I've done a fair amount of walking after dark and haven't had any problems. Maybe it's just me.
If you stay in Laureles, stay in the area between Avenida Bolivariana, Calle 33, Avenida Nutibara and Calle 44, unless you're staying along Carrera 70. Then you can stay north of Calle 44 just stay south of the metro station at Estadio.
Along Carrera 70 are plenty of bars and restaurants, most are inexpensive. Plenty of people out at night, especially Thursday thru Saturday. Huge crowds and serious party atmosphere whenever Atletico Nacional has a home game. Heavy police presence on those nights. There are a few girls who work the street and clubs at night, but they're harder to spot than the girls in Parque Lleras. They keep a much lower profile.
Except for Calle 44 and Calle 33, the side streets within the area defined above are nice, residential streets with plenty of small restaurants and stores scattered around. My street has a security guard who rides through on a bicycle all night long.
Parque Lleras is the upper class party area. Everything is more expensive. It has more food and party options. La Setenta (Carrera 70) is the middle class party area. Beer costs about 1/2 of the Lleras price, same with food. The hotel options in Laureles are more reasonable.
One rarely mentioned advantage of Laureles, no hills. Almost anywhere in Poblado you'll be walking up and down the hills. If you're coming from sea level, are older and not in good physical condition, you're going to end up taking a lot of short taxi rides because of the hills.
If you want more glitz and glamour and want to be around more gringos, spend the money and stay in Poblado near Parque Lleras. If you want the party atmosphere with a decent level of comfort, stay in Laureles and save 20 - 30%. If you want the cheapest of everything, save 50% and stay in El Centro.

Posts: 211Relacion Seria
She really didn't ask me for anything. All she wanted was a relacion seria conmigo. I did give her the rest of money I had leftover before I left so about 160 K. I have been very successful on that site albeit not as successful on the site in Medellin. I was only able to meet two of the like 10 girls I connected with on the site.

Also a third person was injured, a guy who was just passing by on his bike and got a random ball in his leg.

IMO for a first visit, Poblado is better.

Posts: 202A good idea.
In all fairness I think most of you guys should just stay home. To live a life of constant worry is a terrible thing. Yes there is danger in any big city. To me it is a question of risk against reward. Myself I will go to a place that has beautiful willing women who are not indoctrinated by the USA feminists. I have been to Latin America more times than I remember. I have been lost in MDE Centro at 3 AM, and all I got was help to find the strip club I was looking for. Yes I was lucky, but I live life not as a scared rabbit.
Right now I think there is more danger in the so called non third world country's. The real bad guys don't care about Latin America. They have bigger fish to fry.
OK so you are walking in Centro at night. If a guy pulls a gun or knife there is a simple thing to do. Give up the few pesos in your pocket, and go on your way. I hope you have sense enough to not walk the streets with a big roll of cash. So who cares if you lose 50 K or a cheap cell phone?
