Previous international studies found that the relationships between fear of crime models and the perception of safety exist in people no matter where they are. Therefore, in this paper three factors were taken into consideration: victimization, trust and disorder to examine its influence on the perception of safety in Mexicans. Using data from the National Survey of Victimization of Security Perception 2016 of the National Institute of Statistics and Geography in Mexico (INEGI), a multiple regression analysis was conducted in which it was found that these factors have a direct impact on the feeling of citizens’ insecurity. Likewise, according to previous studies of fear of crime, Mexican population also shows a tendency to have effects of these models. Particularly, their perception of safety decreases when they have been previously victimized and when there is social disorder in their communities. El análisis del miedo al delito es de suma importancia en el campo de la criminología. Estudios internacionales previos encontraron que las relaciones entre los modelos del miedo al crimen y la percepción de inseguridad perviven en las personas sin importar dónde se encuentren éstas. Por ello, en el presente trabajo se tomaron en consideración tres factores: victimización, confianza y desorden, para examinar su influencia sobre la percepción de inseguridad en los mexicanos. Utilizando datos de la Encuesta Nacional de Victimización de Percepción sobre Seguridad 2016 del Instituto Nacional de Estadística y Geografía en México (INEGI), se hizo un análisis de regresión múltiple, donde se indica que dichos factores tienen un impacto directo en el sentimiento de inseguridad ciudadano. Asimismo, de acuerdo con los estudios previos del miedo al delito, la población mexicana también muestra una tendencia a tener efectos de estos modelos. Particularmente, la percepción de seguridad disminuye cuando los ciudadanos han sido victimizados con anterioridad y cuando existe desorden social en sus comunidades.
