I stopped in Mexico City on the way to Brasil this trip instead of Cancun, stayed 1 night at the Hilton Airport and 3 at the Hampton Inn Centro Histórico.

On Grindr and Mileroticos, the escorts were quoting 1500 MXN- 3500 MXN PER HOUR....wtf? ($75-180) with the average about 2000 mxn $100 usd..... but they all strictly mentioned by the hour, asking how many hours I wanted

Luckily I found a Cuban near the airport and a Venezuelan downtown that were free hookups on Grindr.

Cuban had a huge dick the other guy was normal sized but could fee he was looking for a bf..... both were nice. There were lots of other free options if i lived there, because our schedules didn't line up to meet but they were willing to meet over the weekend, when I would already be gone.

I didn't bother going to any bars, especially since it was during the week..... they also have lot's or orgy type parties around the city and sex clubs. Mexico City is one of my favorites but was totally shocked by the money being asked for by the escorts....

looks that retaliation against Trump tariffs kicked in already

But these imports are from Venezuela, Colombia, Brazil, Cuba and some local products.... nothing from USA, except me.

It could be that prices escorts charge in CDMX are determined by what they can earn in LA or Houston or what rich California (?) gays are willing to pay in Puerto Vallarta.

This blog by a gringo expat in CDMX has descriptions of the gay scene, including cruising, parties & sex clubs, mainly intended for younger guys who don't want to pay:

Not sure how up-to-date the information is but interesting reading!

Is that 'us peasants' who fly business  class?

I was in San Miguel de Allende and Mexico City for a couple of weeks total this past January/February.  I didn't do much cruising and hits on Grindr were few.  I didn't see / observe any pay for play opportunities that attracted me.  Mexico City is a great destination, finally discovered by travelers who can't quite figure out why they want to visit or what to do when they get there.  When I lived there, I cultivated a regular stream of bedmates, and it was enjoyable.

Any massage guys/places in San Miguel de Allende

SMdA is a conservative behavior community.  Many gays and lesbians either live or visit there, but mostly in a reserved manner.  I don't think there are any massage places, gay or straight.  Grindr is active there, but I didn't attempt any hook-ups.

It's true, the last year or two I've seen prices rise for escorts in CDMX. $800-$1000 ($40-$50SUD) pesos was common for your average guy, but prices are now frequently $1200-$1500 ($60-$70USD). If you message someone using a US phone number they will quote you starting at $1500-$1800 ($75-$90USD) and above. If you plan to party there for a long time, best get a phone sim with a local number if you want a lower price.

I live in Merida and have a Mex number, and they were quoting me those high prices. My friend that owns a hostel and sauna in the city said yes, they have gotten out of hand but people must be paying?

This wave is expanding, Buenos Aires' prices are ridiculous. Let's pray for Brazil  to Santa Maria Veneradora da Sagrada Piroca Gigante e Barata.

Unfortunately I think the new higher pricing ($70-ish USD per hour) is here to stay because in the smaller cities or rural areas of Mexico $700 pesos/hr ($35USD) seems to be the norm now with a range of $500-$900 pesos ($25-$45USD). Of course bigger cities will command higher prices (CDMX, Tijuana, Cancun, Guadalajara, etc). I think a lot of it has to do with the improving economic situation for regular Mexicans due to the reforms of the Morena party which creates inflationary economic pressures. The minimum wage has more than doubled in Mexico from 2020 to 2024 (from $120mxn/day to $250mxn/day) and low and behold, escort pricing is on par with that and has also doubled.

But despite the higher prices, I love Mexican men. They don't get a lot of love on these forums, but I have tasted every type of man around the globe, and no one comes close to the vibes, good feelings, and people pleasing that Mexican escorts bring. Sure they generally don't have the drop-dead gorgeous and muscular looks of a Brazilian garoto, but Mexican men aim to please and party. Generally speaking, I think men from LATAM have a zest for life that you can't find anywhere else, and no one does it better than Mexicans. They are "atrevidos" which translates to bold, cheeky, and persistent. I've had many a meeting with an escort in Mexico where the clock is of no importance and we can kick back and enjoy our company without time pressures. No request is too large or too small because Mexican culture places heavy emphasis on  community, hospitality, and social gatherings. If you meet the Mexican escort's good vibes, playfulness, and zeal, you'll have a tremendous time.

The citizens are protesting in Mexico City in opposition to Americans bringing gentrification and higher prices to the city and the people are fed up.

The funny thing is most of the "investors" that are buying up places are Mexicans....and the ones selling....Mexicans

I think the upset ones may be those who rent, not the ones who buy. Airbnb and the trend for digital nomads is causing a lot of stress in Medellin, for instance. I guess the situation is similar in Mexico.
