Tlaquepaque - Calzada Xochimilco

Very safe street parking spot right next to Unidad Deportivo - a large public multi sport facility that is locked at night. If you have kids it's a great place for you all to run and play, including skateboard parks. The police station is on the corner. Locals are very friendly and we felt very safe leaving the van to walk into the historic centre Centro (el Parian de tlaquepaque) is about a ten minute walk. Beautiful place to hear mariachi and eat street food - vendors surround the parque. Also lots of restaurants and and lively bar scene at one end of the pedestrian mall.
