Something not right?
Description
The border authorities were dubious about boondocking anywhere near here due to the number of migrants and traffickers who pass through, especially at night, but the border closes promptly at 6pm, and I needed a spot. The people in this guarded community assured me it would be fine. There's a covered car park surrounded by businesses and patrolled by guards all night. I was asked for Q50 to stay, though eventually the guards allowed me to stay for free (hoping they didn't get into trouble with their boss for their kindness). Baking hot, and noisy from 7am or so, but felt safe.
Plenty of space for big rigs, toilets and showers open during the day.
