What city was this in?

Every state and city in Mexico can be a different story, but it seems to change every year. Guadalajara seemed safe a few years ago and is now considered dangerous, for example. Yucatan seems like it has been safe for a decade.

Both kidnapping cases were in towns in Jalisco, not too far from Lake Chapala.

Interesting. Chapala is a major gringo enclave and it’s got a rep for being safe.
