Northern Mexico Violent Crime Risk
Crime rapidly changes from states, cities, neighborhoods, and streets, particularly in Mexico, so it is crucial to understand the risks. Pinkerton Crime Index (PCI) reflects these changes in a condensed format that updates data monthly. To help businesses understand their risks and make informed decisions for business, operations, and travel we put together these crime risk snapshots at the state level by crime type — violent crime, property crime, and then total crime — for each of Mexico's 32 states according to the Pinkerton Crime Index, our crime data platform powered by AI and frontier data science. The first snapshot highlights the crime risk scores for violent crimes, such as assault, murder, robbery, in Northern Mexico relative to the country's national average. See how the rich and diverse coastal region of Nayarit, Northern Mexico’s safest state, compares to the other 11 states.
Northern Mexico Property Crime Risk
This next risk snapshot illustrates the property crime — burglary, larceny, and motor vehicle theft — risk scores according to PCI, the first platform to provide an accurate and comprehensive measurement of crime across Mexico. With a population of 1.8 million, Durango has Mexico's second-lowest population density, after Baja California Sur. These two states rank the highest in property crime risk in Northern Mexico.
Northern Mexico Total Crime Risk
According to PCI, the most dangerous region in Northern Mexico in Baja California, home to Tijuana, where the risk is almost 9x that of the national average. See how all of Northern Mexico’s rich and diverse states compare in total crime risk – comprised of both violent and property crime from blended data sources and crime classifications and expressed as a multiple of the national average. The lower the score, the lower the crime risk.
