Talk:Santiago Papasquiaro

Untitled

I have been to Santiago Papasquiro it is a nice place. I have gone to Santiago since I was 5 years old and i think it is one of the best and safest place I have been too. Believe it or not we really dont have that much violence like "cholos" and stuff like that.Thats my place, and i love it!

I know santiago well. I lived there for 5 yrs in the 70's. Graduated from high School. No cholos. But as far as violence... well... Pa que te digo. Let your parents tell you. There is a lot of theft now. We used to be able to leave our doors open. Not anymore. Meth and coke are mostly responsible. We never had drugs back then. Just A lot to drink and of course the violence as a result.

  We had 3 movie theaters. Now zero. We had  dirt and cobble stone streets. A real charm. People still lived in the ranches where we had dances, fist fights, shoot outs and murders. The ranches now seem like ghost towns. Not much fun anymore. 
   We would gather in the plaza and the cafe's, talk and hang out whistle at girls. Not now. Nobody walks. Just rides and hides.
   Very few were over wieght. We walked and we ate mostly organic foods. No super mercado. Micky Dee's? Super size it? Forget about it. TV? Whats that?

I've lived in Santiago Papasquiaro for 5 years, in fact, i just came from there 2 years ago in October 2005. I can say that it is a safe place, very traditional and rich in culture. Its a small city and that why its not esy for kids to get lost or stolen due to that most of the habitants know each other. The people is very friendly and respectful but of course they expect other to be the same. Unlike many big cities around the world theres is rarely any racism seen or discrimination against certain persons.

HOMAN05 Ive gone and visited there since i was lil kid..beautiful small town..but it is expanding... and for violence theres only a lil..between cartels n shit. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Homan05 (talk • contribs) 05:01, 25 November 2007 (UTC)

Santiago papasquiaro is one of the greatest citys in mexico. Even though all you can do is ride around el centro and pick up girls. And of course go to El Cabalgante on Saturday nights(Oxido Sucks) Every thing over there is so nice and calm. The best time to go there is during the fiestas which July 18-27. For that whole week its just straight up trafic and party and hearing las bandas all night long. For the violince theres not that much just bewteen the cartels y las mafias but theres little of that. QUE VIVA Santiago Papasquiaro !!! PURO DURANGO !!! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.228.101.195 (talk) 07:50, 22 August 2008 (UTC)

I lived in Santiago about six years ago and i loved it, but now it seems like everytime we get a call from my abuelita its because somebody we knew was killed due to being kidnapped for ransom money or drugs. I was supposed to go this summer to visit family by myself but then one of my cousins friends was kidnapped and the kidnappers were asking for 200,000 dollars(something like that)which his family could not obtain, to this day they still have no idea what happened to their son, so anyways going back to me going to Santiago again probably never happening at least until all this violence stops. I still can't wait until the day I go back and see all the new things there and of course to visit all my old friends from school(Jose Maria Morelos and Gral. Francisco Villa). And of course...PURO SANTIAGO PAPASQUIARO, DURANGO!!!!! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.217.206.57 (talk) 17:42, 7 October 2010 (UTC)
