La Paz Puts Numbers Behind Cause‑Focused Security Model Aligned With Sheinbaum’s Plan

The mayor is pitching a cause‑first, police‑backed blueprint for Baja California Sur.

Overview

  • Mayor Milena Quiroga said La Paz raised police pay up to 43 percent and added more than 80 patrol cars, plus childcare and bonuses for officers.
  • The municipality reports 154 new police recruits and 11 women’s response units known as Unidades Violeta.
  • Officials say they rebuilt more than 60 parks and run 128 Impulso sites where 26,681 children and teens get free sports and arts classes.
  • The Impulso program, now in its fourth year, counts more than 500,000 attendances at activities in reclaimed public spaces.
  • Quiroga casts the approach as a template for the state under Mexico’s 2024–2030 security plan, with all figures coming from municipal briefings reported by local outlets.
