More specifically, the corner of San Mateo and Paseo del Lago which is a block and a half south of me. I live on San Mateo. Sounded like obnoxiously loud fireworks for over an hour. Scared the crap out of my dogs. When I finally read on Chapala.com what had really transpired, I was really glad I hadn't stuck my head out the door to see what was going on. I finally got to sleep around 1 am after the reality had settled in.
Beautiful morning here today and I figure the chances of it happening again so close to home are slim to none.

You said the homes on San Luis were closer to the shootout. They weren't. I live on San Mateo between San Luis and Avenida de la Ribera. The next street south from Avenida de la Ribera is Paseo del Lago. The shootout took place at the corner of Paseo del Lago and San Mateo.

Sorry you misunderstood my comments.

Let me try again

The shootout was very loud where I live on calle san lucas - which is about 2-3 blocks away. Sounded like it was next door as far as the shots and distance go - it appears that I am about 200 - 250 meters from the shootout according to google maps - and probably the same for the for sale homes. Actually it sounded like it was right down the street - pretty close and I was surprised how well the sound traveled.

From quora - the sound of the “bang” from the gun will die-out over a few hundred meters in a grassy, tree-lined environment. Shorter in snow, and longer with rock or concrete/bricks, or hard-dirt.

Today I noticed 2 homes now for sale on San Luis - west of me - and slightly closer to san mateo and paseo del lago. I had actually been wondering if I would start to see for sale signs in the area - and was not surprised to notice them today. I assume they are really recent as I hadn't noticed them before. If the sounds were loud where I am, then it would have been loud there too - as they are only a few houses away.

I cannot imagine what it sounded like to those that lived closer - must have been very very loud

The noise was unbelievable. I locked all my doors and closed all my windows... and put earplugs in... and could still hear it. Fortunately it only lasted about an hour. I'm staying put.

Once at the intersection to Las Gallinas on the Hwy between Sahuayo and Tizapan el Alto I saw two semi trailers backed up to each other with the rear doors open and military soldiers were transferring bales of marijuana from one to the other. Broad daylight on a major road. No problem, On the way back from Jiquilpan, I stopped at the intersection and swept up a couple of buds for a friend. Shoot out last night. 1f605
