Resumen
Este artículo explora cómo la percepción del delito puede tener un peso mayor que la victimización directa, especialmente entre mujeres en contextos urbanos marcados por la violencia estructural. Se adopta un enfoque cualitativo de tipo exploratorio-descriptivo, basado en el análisis de 233 entrevistas en profundidad con mujeres de entre 18 y 50 años, residentes en diversas zonas de Tijuana. Aunque se hace referencia a encuestas nacionales como la ENDIREH y la ENVIPE para contextualizar el fenómeno de la violencia de género en México, los hallazgos del estudio provienen exclusivamente del trabajo de campo cualitativo; no se realiza análisis cuantitativo como parte del diseño metodológico. Las entrevistas, guiadas por un instrumento semiestructurado derivado de un glosario etnográfico, recogen las realidades cotidianas, temores y estrategias de las mujeres entrevistadas. Las narrativas muestran cómo la percepción de violencia se configura según la edad, el momento vital y las experiencias vividas. Las mujeres jóvenes (18–25) expresan un miedo elevado, asociado a violencias presenciadas o vividas en su formación. En contraste, las mujeres mayores (46–50) elaboran concepciones más amplias de la violencia, que incluyen dimensiones psicológicas, institucionales y territoriales. El enfoque intergeneracional aporta claves analíticas para el diseño de políticas urbanas sensibles al género.
