OK I live here, I love Vallarta, nevertheless I am not blind to the ugly side of this
community. One man's paradise is indeed another man's hell. I was told
that when I first decided to move to Mexico
so many years ago. I was unsure of what that meant, today I understand,
it is one of the things I always tell my clients. I feel as a Realtor
it is my job to fine you your little piece of haven in this tropical paradise, at
the same time I feel not to make people aware of the realities is
unfair. Keeping that in mind, I have endeavored to be honest about
these realities.
Prostitution is alive and well in Vallarta, what I mean buy
that is, it is open and accepted here. Vallarta has a number of strip
joints, where more than dancing takes place for the right amount of
pesos. The girls make very good money, its the RED SUN, or RED ZONE
that seems to offend more. Most cities in Mexico have them, they are located just outside city limits. Catina's where sex is taken to a new
limit. Where, both sexes are available for any number of pleasures.
Often difficult to tell the gender, your wildness fantasies are
available for a shot of tequila and a few hundred pesos. Vallarta's red
zone is just off the beaten track, but inside city
limits. Lets not forget the local whore houses, where the tired, and
aged dancers now work. Are they hidden, yes and no, you could easily buy
a condo beside a very active little house. New to Vallarta, people are
generally shocked, the rest of us seem to just accept it. If anyone
does comment, the comment is always. "
Its Mexico" said with a shrug of the shoulder.
Child
prostitution is a problem in Mexico, but thankfully not a problem in
Vallarta, but does exist more in the back hills. There are people
working on that and acting as child advocates.
