Mexico City?
How is it? Is it a good tourist destination? I might be planning to go there alone this month for a quick getaway. Would it be dangerous and troublesome for me as a young guy alone on his first vacation? I just want to tour the place on foot mostly, take a lot of pictures, and meet nice people... preferably girls. How are the girls there compared to South American countries? Because I originally was planning to go there first... but then thought it might be better to go to Mexico City first since its closer. But I don't know if its better. Its better to go somewhere thats the best place to go as opposed to the closest place. So yeah... tell me how friendly the people are there.... if anyone harrasses you on the street.... if the girls there will like me.... if its easy to get around... if its safe... if theres lots to see and do there... if its cheap there.... if the weather is good there now.... etc. (read on)....
Update:And... tell me how much I can expect to pay for.... a single hotel room for a night? is it cheap? and by cheap im talkin 5-10 dollars. anything more would be a rip-off. Or should I rent an apartment for a month? How much does that cost? And how much does it cost to take the bus or train to Acapolco, Cancun, and other cities? And anything else you could tell me, tell me. Just tell me if it would be a good idea to go there or a stupid idea and if I should go to south america instead. Thanx!!!!

ja ja ja ja ja aj aj ja if you are expecting to pay 5-10 dollars for a hotel room you are crazy !!!
Mexico is cheap, but not that cheap, I mean are you serious?
hotel rooms (decent ones) are around 40 and up, anything less than $40 per night I wont recommend is the same as in the US, cheaper not safe.
People is very friendly, food is amazing, and there's a lot of places to go to, now on foot I am not sure, it will be wise to take tours, ask your hotel to recommend you some tours.
* basic recommendations take care of you as you do when you go on vacations to anywhere, the rules are the same.
you will love Mexico, it's wonderful place ... I just want to tell you something, it is cheaper to go there than anywhere in the US, but don't expect to pay less than a normal vacation, cause you wont.
Have a safe trip !
Mexico DF is an robust position. Remember 30 million folks using vehicles dwelling in a dry lake mattress. Yeah it is extremely polluted, unhealthy. In reality while I used to be there folks could stroll round in blue mask, a few days there could be little visability within the sky and it used to be scorching as hell within the wintry weather. For all of Mexicos downers matters like teotiwachaun, oxchimilico, the Metro, and so forth make the beautiy that's mexico
