Given continuing inquiries on Mexico's security situation as it affects U.S. business activity in this country, we wish to call readers attention to the U.S. State Department Travel Alert for U.S. citizens visiting and living in Mexico. 

The security situation along the US-Mexico border has become more fluid, while other parts of the country remain largely unaffected by the Mexican federal government's crackdown on narcotraffickers and organized criminal elements.
