In 2021, there were approximately 16,045 Mexican refugees living in other countries around the world, up from around 15.4 thousand reported a year earlier. Between 2000 and 2021, the number of Mexican refugees living abroad has increased exponentially. A leading reason for Mexicans to seek asylum elsewhere is due to the country's organized-crime violence, which was responsible for nearly 23.4 thousand homicides in 2019.
