I'm visiting Mexico City in December for a concert at the Frey Nano and I'm looking for a relatively safe area to stay, close to the venue. My friend and I don't want to walk around at night without knowing which areas to avoid. If someone could give us some advice on which area to stay in and maybe recommend a great taco spot, we'd be grateful.

My husband and I are in our 30s, visiting Mexico City for 2-3 days in February. We're interested in local businesses, music, history, and wandering around. We speak some Spanish but want to brush up. We prefer public transport, DiDi, and less is more for us.

I've seen a Vait AI real estate analysis that says the median price in Interlomas is about MXN $55,807 per m², and the median price for a department is around MXN $9,978,250. Does that match what you're seeing? Which areas do you recommend for renting or buying?

I've been looking for a while and so far, I've noticed that listings on websites and platforms are often inflated, and if you find a good deal, good luck in not getting outbid. Facebook and local groups are full of scammers and people with a distorted view of the market. I've been recommended to walk around the neighborhood and ask people or check with the building management.

I'm visiting Mexico City with my family and looking for a central location near representative places. I found an Airbnb in Tabacalera, but the reviews have mixed opinions about the area's safety. I also considered Coyoacan or Alamos, but they are out of our budget.

I'm struggling to find a pet-friendly apartment in Mexico City. A past roommate kept my deposit, so I want my own place. I earn 26,000 pesos a month and can pay 3 months' rent in advance. I've been looking in Santa Maria la Ribera, but demand is high.
