Desplazamiento forzado en México: violencia e inseguridad

The 2025 Intercensal Survey conducted by Mexico’s National Institute of Statistics and Geography (INEGI) reveals that violence and insecurity forced approximately 510,000 households to relocate within the country, resulting in the internal displacement of millions of people. This represents a significant statistical milestone, as it is the first time the survey explicitly captures forced displacement due to crime. The findings highlight that Guerrero, Morelos, and Baja California Sur experienced the highest rates of displacement, underscoring how regional contexts of risk drive these movements. The article emphasizes that forced displacement entails severe socio-economic consequences beyond mere relocation, including job loss, interrupted education, and the breakdown of community support networks. These factors exacerbate existing vulnerabilities, such as food insecurity, which affected a notable percentage of households during the survey period. The data suggests that displaced families often arrive in new locations without stable employment or housing, deepening their precarious situation. This report is crucial for open data initiatives because it introduces a standardized, national metric for forced displacement, a phenomenon previously documented only by civil society organizations or local authorities. By providing a scalable, transparent dataset, INEGI enables researchers, policymakers, and the public to analyze the intersection of security, migration, and poverty. This enhances accountability and supports evidence-based interventions aimed at protecting vulnerable populations from internal displacement.
