Why do 1 million Americans risk medical tourism to Mexico every year?

I am afraid that few people go to Mexico to save money. Driving for hours costs more money than you save! Many Americans go to Mexico for several purposes. Mexican Food Basically, all Americans love Mexican food. Although there are many Mexican restaurants in the United States, none of them are as good as the original ones. What's more, getting to Mexico is very easy. No need for a visa or anything. You just drive through a checkpoint, and most people don't have to get out of their cars. 2 Spring break is spring break. Every spring, American schools have a week-long spring break. During this week, many college students go to Mexico to enjoy the sun, sand, beer and some carnival activities; the beaches are full this week every year. Moreover, drug control in Mexico is much looser than that in the United States, so many college students will take advantage of it. 3A cheap and quick holiday. Even if you don't live near the U.S.-Mexico border, many people vacation in Mexico because U.S. dollars are worth much more in Mexico. Affordable, exotic and harmonious.
