Abstract: El estudio analiza cómo diversas dimensiones de vulnerabilidad social inciden en la criminalidad en México (2016-2024) mediante un panel estatal con modelos de efectos fijos. Muestra que desigualdad y pobreza no explican linealmente los homicidios, mientras robos y narcomenudeo se asocian con violencia letal. Los delitos patrimoniales se vinculan con rezago educativo y privación social, en un contexto territorial e institucional complejo.
