Violence linked to organized crime became a constant in several cities in Mexico, mainly in those adjacent to the United States. In this context, the relationship between the border social structure of the border and its inhabitants changed, particularly with regard to the power groups holding power in the state of Baja California. In tThis is the context, inof this article, in which I present two aspects of the mobility of entrepreneurs: a) the process in which violence settled into the border region of Tijuana and b) show the differentiated practices of mobility that allowed them to move awaydistance themselves from crime without leaving the Tijuana-San Diego border region. Based on an ethnographic fieldwork with business groups, I emphasize that in the framework of criminality, the border showed its polysemic character. By way of conclusion I affirm that with the expression of violence, lived or represented, border elites were socially and spatially reconfigured.
