Mongolia offers a unique blend of ancient traditions and stunning landscapes, making it an appealing destination for some Mexican travelers. With 7.3 million Mexicans traveling internationally each year, a segment of this population may find Mongolia's distinctive experiences worth exploring, despite the country's developing tourism infrastructure.
Mongolia is generally considered a safe destination for tourists, including those from Mexico. According to the Global Peace Index, Mongolia ranks 44th out of 160 countries, indicating a relatively high level of safety, especially compared to Mexico, which ranks 136th. In terms of crime statistics, Mongolia has a significantly lower murder rate of 6.2 per 100,000 people, compared to Mexico's 28.2. Additionally, the rates of female murders are also lower in Mongolia (2.5) than in Mexico (6.2). The Global Organized Crime Index further highlights the differences in safety between the two countries. Mongolia scores much better in various crime categories, such as mafia groups (2.0 vs. 9.0), crime networks (4.5 vs. 9.0), and drug trafficking, where Mongolia scores 2.0 for heroin and cocaine, while Mexico scores much higher at 8.0 and 9.0, respectively. Overall, tourists from Mexico can expect a safer environment in Mongolia compared to their home country.
