The aim of the study was to determine factors associated with readiness for condom use in the general population living in conditions of high population mobility in Mexico and Central America. We analyzed a survey conducted in eleven locations in Mexico and Central America, using a logistic regression model to identify variables associated with willingness to use condoms. The people willing to use condoms is characterized by men (RP), youth, singles, students, schooling more than six years, with medium to high level of knowledge about stis and HIV/AIDS and perceived risk is STI/HIV. This study allows to determine the characteristics of the population living in conditions of high population mobility and its relationship with the willingness to take preventive measures for HIV/AIDS.
