Violence has displaced residents from more than half a million households across Mexico over the past five years, according to new data released by Mexico’s national statistics agency. This marks the first time the government has shared comprehensive figures on people forced to leave their homes due to ongoing violence in many parts of Mexico. Previously, civil society groups had compiled piecemealed information to estimate displacement trends. The release highlights an invisible internal displacement crisis affecting millions of Mexicans.
