To cover the well-being dimension of security in the Córdoba agglomerations, this section uses the indicator of number of homicides per 100 000 inhabitants – baseline indicator.

The homicide rate in the Córdoba agglomerations is 3.56 per 100 000 inhabitants; this rate is very similar to the average in Germany, and below the country value in the United States, Peru, Chile and Mexico. However, it is higher than in 75% of OECD regions (296 out of 391). In a Latin American context, the homicide rate in the Córdoba agglomerations is one of the lowest compared to the regions of Mexico, Colombia, Peru and Chile – only 3 Latin American regions (out of 105) display lower homicide rates than the Córdoba agglomerations (Figure 2.28).

Homicide rates do not vary much across the four Córdoba agglomerations. The highest difference in this indicator is observed between Villa María-Villa Nueva with a homicide rate of 2.5 murders per every 100 000 people and Río Cuarto-Las Higueras with a homicide rate of 4.2 (only 11% higher than the average homicide rate of the OECD regions, of 3.8 homicides per 100 000 people) (Table 2.9).
