This place looks pretty damn nice in comparison - Kral, on 10/24/2008, -3/+41"Don't bring your work home with you" is a good rule to live by, especially if you're a mortician.
- chililili, on 10/24/2008, -8/+44So thought I'd comment here to guide you ignorant americans. Those are not suburban houses. They are mass produced government sponsored houses that are designed for lower middle income people. You can get one of these for a down payment of around 500 dollars and they end up costing I believe something like 6-7 thousand dollars. They are designed to be the same so they can be made cheap and can be sold cheap so that people have an opportunity ot own a house. And these houses last better and far longer than your average american house because we use actual concrete and stone and not crappy wood. But this is no suburbia, the suburbs is a purely american invention and we don't have that here in mexico here we have fenced off areas for the rich people were no one poor can come in.

Wives are the same too. - SellyMacGovvern, on 10/24/2008, -3/+29That's blowing my mind, but I'm also really high.
- Brian48216, on 10/24/2008, -3/+28how exactly does a lack of imagination in urban planning constitute Orwellian?
Do you people even understand the term, or do you guys just like to throw it around to sound cool and anti-establishment cuz you saw V for Vendetta? - mattbeetee, on 10/24/2008, -1/+24With a camera.
- inactive, on 10/24/2008, -0/+22What are those roofless rooms on the roof for?

Does everyone in mexico either live in the city or in the country? Is this area outside a city? Is it residential? Hmm.. sounds like a suburb.
- harvinator24, on 10/24/2008, -4/+14Wow aren't you just an *****.
- marv0, on 10/24/2008, -2/+11My girlfriend is half Mexican, and she wouldn't be offended. Up here in Washington state, 90% of landscaping companies are run by Hispanic people.
If I'm an employee in the video game industry, would it be insulting if someone told me I should have a bigger TV and more systems? Chill out ladypants. - inactive, on 10/24/2008, -2/+11su casa mi casa?

- Spadassin, on 10/24/2008, -1/+8This photo is REAL...Most of this houses are SO DAMN SMALL and SO DAMN EXPENSIVE most people have to work 30 or 40 years to pay them off. Actually they are under the living stardards for human house

- kurkpeterman, on 10/24/2008, -0/+7It is in response to the public housing that was built in San Francisco in the 60's. If you've been there before you've seen the lines of houses built on a grid on the hills (along with some of those horrible paint colors she mentions).
- luizlizard, on 10/24/2008, -1/+8Idiota, como si sus esposas estuvieran muy buenotas, ya son puras gordas.
