According to the National Urban Public Security Survey (ENSU) by the National Institute of Statistics and Geography (INEGI), corresponding to the first quarter of this year, Puerto Vallarta remains among the ten safest cities in Mexico.
This is the result of joint work, strategies, and actions that the municipal government and state and federal authorities have promoted in terms of security to guarantee the safety of citizens and visitors.
The survey conducted between February 27 and March 15, 2023, places this tourist destination in ninth place among cities with the lowest percentage of perception of insecurity nationwide and the only safest city in Jalisco.
