Campestre (Ciudad Juárez)

Campestre is an area of Ciudad Juárez, Chihuahua, Mexico. Historically, it was a country club area of the city. Drug violence forced many people to flee the area. By 2010 many "for rent" and "for sale" signs were seen in the neighborhood. Residents placed large boulders in the streets to deter would-be extortionists and kidnappers.[1]
