13. New Mexico – International District (Albuquerque)
The International District in Albuquerque is widely recognized for having higher levels of crime compared to many other neighborhoods in New Mexico. Issues such as property crime, drug activity, and violent incidents have been persistent over time contributing to the city’s violent rate of 1,388 per 100k residents. The area is also culturally diverse and home to many working communities, but it has faced long-term economic and social challenges that influence safety outcomes. While Albuquerque includes safer suburban regions, the International District often appears in discussions about urban risk in the state. Its conditions reflect a mix of density, housing pressure, and economic strain that has developed over many years.
