Mexican authorities in at least one major city have taken steps to improve security ahead of a busy tourist season and spring break as high crime<\/a> remains a chief concern.\u00a0<\/p>\n

“We strengthen security with the construction of three filters at points marked by the heat map, such as the accesses to Cancun-Playa del Carmen, Tulum-Playa del Carmen and Valladolid-Playa del Carmen, as well as in Villas del Sol, to guarantee a safe stay for visitors and locals,” Municipal President Lili Campos said during a press conference earlier this month.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The coastal resort town of Playa del Carmen, which sits roughly 40 miles south of Cancun, has announced plans to increase the number of patrols from just 20 a day to 314, which will reflect “better security in the municipality,” according to Campos.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The announcement followed the discovery of four murdered people inside a van in the Ejidal neighborhood of Playa del Carmen, according to Reportur, a news outlet dedicated to Latin American<\/a> tourism news.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Law enforcement in the area has proposed and rolled out a number of increased security measures as greater attention shifts to the crime problem in Mexico, which remains a top tourist destination for many Americans.\u00a0<\/p>\n

News Nation Now reported that more than 30 million Americans traveled to Mexico<\/a> over the first 11 months of 2022 alone. Playa del Carmen set a record with over 820,000 tourists in the summer of 2022, beating its previous record of 625,000 in 2019 for the same period, according to Travel Off Path.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The police in January announced plans to invest $1.9 million in new security cameras across the town with a new surveillance and monitoring center almost completed and expected to be fully operational by the end of February.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The U.S. State Department issued Level 4 travel advisory warnings for six Mexican states \u2013 Colima, Guerrero, Michoacan, Tamaulipas and Zacatecas \u2013 indicating “greater likelihood of life-threatening risks.”\u00a0<\/p>\n

When asked earlier this month about any changes to the advisories ahead of spring break, the State Department reiterated the current warnings<\/a> and said it had “no changes to the Mexico Travel Advisory to announce or preview.”\u00a0<\/p>\n

“Violent crime and gang activity are widespread,” the department warning said of one area. “Most homicides are targeted assassinations against members of criminal organizations.”<\/p>\n

The Cancun Sun stressed that the “vast majority” of crimes in Playa del Carmen are “petty in nature” and most violent crimes aren\u2019t normally directed at tourists, but “the resort areas of Playa del Carmen are where petty crime is most common.” The increased police presence is often cited as a major factor in deterring petty crime. <\/p>\n

The state of Quintana Roo where Playa Del Carmen is located is not included in the State Department’s “do not travel” list.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
