Skin color has nothing to do with it. Go watch some of the protest footage. It's all gueros (white middle-class Mexicans) who are protesting gentrification, because they resent being priced out of their nice, safe neighborhoods by English speaking foreigners.

In many ways, Mexico is better developed than /trv/'s favorite Asian countries. Sidewalks are standard on nearly all streets in Mexican cities. There is always a plaza with benches and rubbish bins in the center of town. Bus service between cities is first class, and the cuota expressways are also First World tier. Nobody's hopping in the back of a pickup truck to get someplace outside of remote mountain villages.
Friendliness varies widely. Mexicans distrust unknown solo males, but if you're traveling with a friend or gf, most people will be friendly, and women might even smile at you. Some cities like Queretaro are famous for their refinement. Poza Rica OTOH is a place of cultureless crudity. I've never heard old women talk filth in public as casually as they did in Poza Rica.
