ETS Security Overview - Monterrey

Mexico is a diverse country with rich cultural, historical, and natural attractions, making it one of the top global tourist destinations. While many regions of Mexico are safe for travelers, the country faces significant security challenges, particularly in areas affected by organized crime and drug cartel activity. Violence related to cartel conflicts, as well as crime, can impact both residents and visitors. However, the risks vary greatly depending on the region. More than ever before, business travelers unaware of the risk distinctions from district to district, and neighborhood to neighborhood are either placing themselves at unprecedented risk or missing out on business opportunities in places where the risk is manageable.  Click here to learn more about Mexico Risk and Security.

Monterrey, the capital of the northeastern state of Nuevo León, is one of Mexico’s largest and most economically important cities. Known for its industrial base and status as a key business hub, Monterrey attracts a significant number of international visitors, expatriates, and business travelers. Although Monterrey is more prosperous and developed than many other Mexican cities, it still faces security challenges, including organized crime, Narco-terrorism, petty crime, and occasional civil unrest.

Monterrey has been affected by cartel activity in the past, particularly during the 2010-2012 period, when drug cartels were involved in violent clashes for control of smuggling routes. While the situation has improved, cartel-related violence can still occur, particularly in areas outside the city center or in less secure neighborhoods. Travelers are advised to avoid discussing topics related to cartels or illegal activities and should stay updated on any security developments. 

Petty crimes such as pickpocketing, bag snatching, and mobile phone theft are common, particularly in crowded public areas like markets, public transport hubs, and tourist attractions. Visitors should exercise caution in areas like Macroplaza, Barrio Antiguo, and busy shopping districts. Tourists and expatriates are often targeted, so it’s important to remain vigilant and avoid displaying valuables in public.
