Now! If they hadn't made it illegal, Tijuana would have made a much better Las Vegas, even if they had to shift it down to Rosarito Beach, a la Atlantic City.
I lived there for 22 years and it gets pretty damn cold in winter, and too hot in summer, so Tijuana's climate would have been perfect for a large-scale gaming locale.
If you want year-round, you need the climate for that, and Niagara Falls doesn't even qualify.
