STORYLINE:
In the dusty, dimly lit neighbourhood of San Pedro Sula in Honduras, violence and poverty reigns and everyone knows the unwritten rules.
There are places you don't go without permission; if driving, roll down the windows so gang members and their lookouts can see who's inside; and it's safest not to venture out after nightfall, leaving the streets to the enforcers and drug dealers who are armed and won't hesitate to kill.
Honduras' second city is where caravan after caravan of migrants have formed in recent months to head north toward Mexico and the United States, fleeing violence, poverty, corruption and chaos.
The northern district of San Pedro Sula where Associated Press journalists accompanied police on patrol on a recent night is home to nearly 230,000 people with just 50 officers patrolling its 189 neighbourhoods, including the most dangerous ones.
The police carry handguns and are accompanied by soldiers with assault rifles.
On this night the patrol largely goes without incident. Police frisk customers at a pool hall and check IDs over their inebriated protests.
Honduras' National Civil Police say homicides have dropped significantly nationwide.
From a high of 86 killings per 100,000 inhabitants in 2011, the murder rate last year was 41 per 100,000 residents, though that's still one of the highest on the planet.
"There are some zones belonging to some gang sectors where the police goes, makes arrests, takes control of those zones, and crime diminishes," said Ronald Posadas, San Pedro Sula Police spokesman.
"There was no police presence in these zones before."
Although killings are said to be down even further so far this year, but that's not the only factor that makes life hard in the city.
While the Honduran caravans all had San Pedro Sula as their departure point, migrants from all over the country flock here whenever it's time for a new one.
Many Hondurans blame the country's problems on President Juan Orlando Hernández, who was re-elected in 2018 despite a constitutional ban on second terms and in a vote that was marred by irregularities.
He promised a "better life" as a campaign slogan but has been unable to deliver that for the country's most vulnerable.
Hernández's office did not respond to a request for comment. The president said recently that "I swore not to rest until Hondurans' peace and tranquility are recovered, and I will continue to do that." Last week he said his administration's economic policies are working, and "We are doing well."
Washington has threatened Northern Triangle countries with security and humanitarian aid cuts if they are unable to staunch the flow of migration.
But that could have the opposite effect if jobs and anti-poverty programs suffer.
Rolando Lázaro Bautista, 47, lives on an unpaved San Pedro Sula street dotted with dirt-floor, wood-and-corrugated metal homes.
It's an area without sewers or running water, and hundreds have left.
Bautista says he went north twice. First in a caravan in January, only to be deported from Mexico. Next, he hired a "coyote," or smuggler, but was caught three days' walk into Texas on his way to Houston and deported.
After his experience Bautista doesn't intend to try again, and says the government has to provide jobs: "They have to create jobs if they do not want us to leave."
Back home he's found construction work this week. But after that there's nothing certain. He and his wife rely on money sent from their daughter who migrated to Spain, and who paid the coyote's 7,500 US dollar fee. Meanwhile they take care of the two daughters she left in San Pedro Sula.
Honduran sociologist Jenny Argüello says it costs the average family of five the equivalent of about $650 per month to pay for the basic food basket, more than the monthly minimum wage of around 400 US dollars.
In the 1990s most who migrated did so in search of a better life, Argüello says, but now all those people marching in caravans are sending a simple message: "Honduran society is not well, they are doing very badly, and there is no hope of a life here."
