Nuevo Laredo is awful. There are NOT parts of Chicago this bad. I guarantee that. I, too, did some business there and the company had 4 armed guards/employees escorting me. It's truly fucked up.

As living in the border I can say that yes NL is not the safest place. Me as mexican would not adventure to ANY red zone bar as a turist. I lived six years in Matamoros and 6 now in Juarez and really it took me some time to get the guts to get into the red zone.
Stewmeat, Think it twice. The people that MAINLY has issues in NL are drug dealers or as some one said look like thay have a platinum card in their forehead.
In the other border town is mainly the guys that you can tell they have money. Unfortunattly you as a US, everybody assumes you have tons of dollars.
So yes. It is risky. However I felt unconfortable also going to a club in downtown Boston.

So now that we have concluded that Nuevo Laredo is slightly dangerous for us gringos and that TJ is safe, can someone go more into depth about the TJ scene?
If you go to TJ, do you drive through the border crossing? Or do you park in San Diego, walk through the border, and then take a cab?
What is the best clubs or place to to go in TJ? Do you stay the night there or go back to the US?

I go to TJ all the time..I park at the border, and take a cab inside mexico. You can find men with boobs at many of the strip clubs. They are mixed in with the women. They are quite sneaky. They don't tell you they are men.
All the cab drivers know where to go. But beware, sometimes the cab drivers will try to take you to the spots deep in town where the locals go. I would strongly advise against going to these places. Stay around the main strip on Revolution.

I might add that the club I went to is only four or so blocks from the international bridge. Smack dab in the middle of downtown. Well within walking distance.
Gusano's is frequented by american tourists as it is so close to the bridge. I go there because it is close to my home city of Somerset Tx.
TJ is too far from me to travel in a weekend.
The redzone in NL,i e., boystown, is approximately three miles southwest of downtown and is in no way related to any of the downtown activites.
I can assure anyone that it is very safe as the cops and the federales patrol in force to protect the tourism and many tourists from the usa that frequent the downtown area.
I did not mean to start a war here, only to provide some very useful information concerning some very sexy shemales. I might add very sexy shemales...
For any interested Texas parties, take i-35 from SA and travel south to Laredo. Cross bridge #1 or two on foot after paying your $3.00 and have fun.
I usually drive across and park in the downtown area, but on holidays, it is better to walk across as the traffic is heinous trying to get back into the US.
To return to the US, you will have to pay $2.25, or about 25 peosos.
Beer is cheap, and no one will kidnap you with thousands of people walking around on the street.
