Puebla, capital, ranks fourth nationally in perceived insecurity: INEGI - Periódico Síntesis de México
The capital of Puebla is facing a severe security crisis, as evidenced by a rise in residents’ perception of danger and the closure of businesses due to extortion. Public spaces, particularly public transportation, are identified as the most vulnerable environments, reflecting a significant deterioration in citizens’ quality of life and trust in local authorities. This situation is crucial for the field of open data, as it illustrates how national surveys can reveal patterns of social vulnerability and shortcomings in public policies. Transparent access to these indicators enables civil society and researchers to analyze the effectiveness of security strategies and demand accountability based on empirical evidence. Finally, the case highlights the importance of using open data to monitor the impact of insecurity on the local economy and public perception. By making this problem visible through accessible statistics, transparency is promoted and better public management practices are encouraged, prioritizing the protection of the population and commerce against crime.
