Sumari: | Despite the increase in migration since 2000 due to insecurity and violence in Mexico, the geographical patterns and differences by types of migration: municipal, state, and international are unknown. Using data from the 2020 Population and Housing Census and employing regression models and spatial analysis, this research shows the association between migration and violence in destination municipalities. The findings indicate that municipal immigrants tended to move primarily to municipalities with high violence rates, while state immigrants moved mainly to municipalities with low levels of violence. On the other hand, international immigrants particularly directed to border cities with varying levels of violence. Consequently, the relationship between immigration rates and violence rates in destination places varies according to the type of migration and geographic borders crossed. |
