The US State Department has recently updated its annual travel advisory for Mexico. The advisory urges caution for travelers planning to visit most states in the country, with only Campeche and Yucatan deemed as safe.
The advisory highlights the prevalence of violent crime in numerous regions across Mexico. As a result, there are restrictions in place for US employees, including limitations on travel between cities after dark and restricted movement in certain areas.
The state of Chiapas was particularly noted in the advisory due to high levels of crime and potential criminal activity. Travelers are advised to remain vigilant and exercise caution when visiting this state.
