Is Mérida safe for women?

Is the safest city in Mexico, the police is everywhere, they are very respectful and nice. The North area is the safest in the city, it is very walkable and secure. Public transportation and Uber are really secure, I have always transported with Uber for 5 years, I haven’t had any dangerous or uncomfortable experience.
Posted: July 9, 2024Mérida is the second safe city in all America Continent, and the first safe city in Latinoamérica for 2024. Is a very safe but warm city, there is a lot to do around and in the city. The nearest beach is around 35 min driving and the cenotes in around 1 hr driving.

Merida is reported as the safest city in Mexico and coming from Germany (which is usually pretty safe), merida really felt like home. Of course, you shouldn’t stay out at night by yourself and rather take an Uber than walking but when you have some sense of your surroundings you will probably feel safe. The city and people are really friendly and food is amazing.
