This article consists of a diagnosis of the spatial-affective perceptions of mobility in the University City (CU) of the Universidad Michoacana de San Nicolás de Hidalgo, in Morelia, Michoacán, Mexico, by members of the university itself, to assess indicators of well-being and safety. It presents feminist elaborations of the concepts of security and well-being in the face of, on the one hand, the interior-exterior dialectic that is present in the control systems that are imposed in public spaces, and on the other, in the face of securitisation measures that do not consider subjective aspects linked to the well-being and security needs of the people, mainly students, who move around these spaces on a daily basis. It analyses findings obtained from a feminist walk, a methodological strategy that was implemented within the research project ‘Disarticulating youth and gender violence in Mexican Higher Education Institutions’, from which this article is derived
