Intentional homicide victims 2015–2025 by state, Mexico

Name: Intentional homicide victims 2015–2025 by state, Mexico (Mexico)

Victims of intentional homicide (homicidio doloso, excluding femicide, which is recorded separately) recorded in prosecutors' investigation files, per 100,000 population, for selected years from 2015 to 2025, and the change from 2019 to 2025 (derived). INEGI's death-registration statistics (in the homicide table) count presumed homicides from death certificates and give different totals. Counts are victims recorded in investigation files (carpetas de investigación) opened by state prosecutors' offices for state-level (fuero común) offences, as reported to the SESNSP, by state where the file was opened; they reflect crimes reported to the authorities, not all crimes committed (INEGI's victimization survey estimates that most crimes go unreported), and recording practices differ between states. Rates per 100,000 population are derived by Quadranac using CONAPO's mid-year population projection for the same year. From 2026 the SESNSP uses a new methodology (Registro Nacional de Incidencia Delictiva), so 2026 figures are not comparable and are not included.
