Irapuato es la quinta ciudad con la mayor percepción de inseguridad en México, revela Inegi

Data from the National Institute of Statistics and Geography (INEGI) show that Irapuato ranks fifth nationwide in perceived insecurity, significantly surpassing the national average. While neighboring cities such as León and Guanajuato City have shown slight improvements, Irapuato displays a concerning upward trend in residents’ feelings of unsafety compared to the previous year, highlighting a divergent security trajectory within the region. Public trust remains fragile, with a majority of citizens in León favoring the Army’s performance over that of the National Guard. However, confidence in local authorities to address primary problems is low across all three cities, indicating a broader crisis in governance effectiveness. This sentiment extends to federal institutions, where significant portions of the population express distrust, despite some level of confidence in the federal government’s actions. This report is crucial for open data initiatives, as it underscores the need for transparent, accessible, and granular security statistics. By making such detailed survey results openly available, policymakers and citizens can hold institutions accountable, analyze regional disparities, and drive evidence-based public safety strategies, rather than relying on opaque or generalized narratives.
