Notwithstanding the foregoing, it is important to mention that in 2012, confidence in Municipal police grew statewide by 14.5%, increasing mainly in Ensenada (22.5%) and to a lesser extent in Mexicali (15.8%), Rosarito (14.9%), Tecate (11.6%) and Tijuana (7.5%).

Confidence in the Municipal police is currently lower in Tecate and Rosarito; Ensenada had increased feelings of no more or no less. There are equal proportions at the State level of those who say it is less, equal or greater; however it should be noted that in Tijuana the index is higher for those who have greater confidence in the Municipal police of the current City Hall in Tijuana.

While they have failed to win the confidence of the citizens, seven of every ten Baja Californians are aware of that the Municipal police have taken measures to have officers that are better trained, more honest and committed to the population; This increased to eight of ten in Tijuana; stays at seven in Mexicali; and decreases to six in Ensenada, Tecate and Rosarito.
