Since 2014, 209 incidents of anti-LGBTQ+ related hate crimes have been reported in ten of the 32 federal entities in Mexico where the source is able to collect data from local organizations. 112 victims of these crimes, that is, 53.6 percent of the total, identified as gay, the largest share by far. The sexual orientation of nearly a third of the victims remains unknown. Due to the difficulties that gathering this data poses, the source estimates that the real figures are considerably higher, with at least three unreported incidents for each known crime.
