Between January and April, Chihuahua recorded a total of 542 intentional homicides, according to figures from the Executive Secretariat of the National Public Security System (SESNSP).
Located on the border with the United States, Ciudad Juarez has historically been considered one of the most violent localities in the country. In 2010, it recorded more than 3,000 murders.
Last April, the National Survey of Urban Public Safety (ENSU) revealed that 72.2% of people over the age of 18 living in Ciudad Juárez feel unsafe in the city. The ENSU is prepared by the National Institute of Statistics and Geography (Inegi) and is released every quarter.
