According to the most recent report from the Executive Secretariat of the National Public Security System (Sesnps) in July, the incidence of crime in Yucatan is 9 times lower than that registered at the national level. Confirming the state as one of the safest in Mexico.
Yucatan also stands out as the first place with the lowest rate of intentional homicides with 1.05 cases per 100 thousand inhabitants, in contrast to the national rate of 11.37 cases. The rate of vehicle theft is registered with 1.13 cases as opposed to 39.29 per 100 thousand inhabitants.
There are also fewer cases of extortion, with 0.04 cases per 100 thousand inhabitants compared to 4.51 cases per 100 thousand inhabitants in the other states.
Similarly, Yucatán was ranked second in the rate of home robbery with 1.73 cases per 100 thousand inhabitants, this being the historical minimum and much lower than the national rate of 20.67 cases per 100 thousand inhabitants.
