PERSONAL OPINION

I think it is important to know the levels of insecurity in a specific State because it can help us get an idea of ​​many other things, such as the direction of the economy, the quality of life of the inhabitants, government decisions, etc. The fact that insecurity in Nayarit has grown so much in such a short time is unfortunate news, since this is one of the most emblematic states of our country, it represents a cultural and social heritage that is attractive to many people.

Doing a quick investigation, I realized that there are analyzes that assure that the geographical location of Nayarit also implies a disadvantage, since despite being a prosperous territory, it is surrounded by larger states that spread violence. I believe that despite the fact that this is a feature that cannot be modified, the government could implement measures to combat this violence and maintain the safety of citizens, tourism and the region to which it belongs.
