I heard some guy named Andy Dufresne moved there after escaping from prison - word was that he bought a boat and started a charter fishing business with an ex-con named Ellis Redding that goes by the name "Red" - a man that's been known to locate certain things from time to time.
That being said,DOS travel advisories say the following as of 17-AUG-22:
Quote:
Guerrero state – Do Not Travel
Do not travel due to crime.
Crime and violence are widespread. Armed groups operate independently of the government in many areas of Guerrero. Members of these groups frequently maintain roadblocks and may use violence towards travelers. U.S. citizens and LPRs have been victims of kidnapping in previous years.
Travel for U.S. government employees is limited to the following area with the noted restrictions:
Taxco: U.S. government employees must use Federal Highway 95D, which passes through Cuernavaca, Morelos, and stay within downtown tourist areas of Taxco. Employees may visit Grutas de Cacahuamilpa National Park during the day with a licensed tour operator.
U.S. government employees may not travel to other areas of the state of Guerrero, including to tourist areas in Acapulco, Zihuatanejo, and Ixtapa.

I'd definitely follow what you got from the DOS unless you are super comfortable with the boyfriends family. There's places right here in the USA that I wouldn't let my daughter go without responsible adults in tow. she may not have liked it, but now she's an adult that has to make her own choices. I just hope I passed on enough common sense to help her make good choices.
I've been to Cuernavaca and a few other nearby spots and as a grown man I'm not sure I'd go meandering about by myself. I would not want to count on the current administrations DOS be the ones trying to help bring my daughter home from Mexico if things went awry.
