Honduras - Statistics & Facts
Honduras is located in Central America with a large coastline on the Caribbean Sea and a much smaller coastline on the Pacific Ocean. Honduras borders Nicaragua to the south, El Salvador to the southwest and Guatemala to the west. Honduras has been and continues to be relatively unstable and plagued by corruption, poverty and crime. Unfortunately, the country also has one of the highest homicide rate in Latin America and the Caribbean. Despite remaining as one of the most violent countries in the world, progress has been made, as shows the notable fall in homicide rates during last years.
