The infant mortality rate in Mexico, for children under the age of one year old, was 121 deaths per thousand births in 1955. This translated into over twelve percent of children born that year not surviving past their first birthday. Over the course of the next 65 years, this number fell to fourteen deaths per thousand births by the 2015 to 2020 period. Although this number is approximately double the rate of neighboring United States, it is still significantly lower than the global average.

The child mortality rate in Mexico, for children under the age of five, was 487 deaths per thousand births in 1890. This means that roughly half of all children born in 1890 did not make it to their fifth birthday (the number did rise above fifty percent in 1895). Since the turn of the twentieth century, the child mortality rate in Mexico has fallen during each five year interval, and is expected to be sixteen deaths per thousand births in 2020.

In the first half of the twentieth century the crude birth rate of Mexico fluctuates, between 41 and 48, before gradually declining from 1955 until today. Improved living conditions, economic opportunities and education have led to a decrease in Mexico's crude birth rate, and it is expected to fall below 18 births per thousand in 2020.

Maternal mortality rates can vary significantly around the world. For example, in 2022, Estonia had a maternal mortality rate of zero per 100,000 live births, while Mexico reported a rate of 38 deaths per 100,000 live births. However, the regions with the highest number of maternal deaths are Sub-Saharan Africa and Southern Asia, with differences between countries and regions often reflecting inequalities in health care services and access. Most causes of maternal mortality are preventable and treatable with the most common causes including severe bleeding, infections, complications during delivery, high blood pressure during pregnancy, and unsafe abortion. Maternal mortality in the United States In 2022, there were a total of 817 maternal deaths in the United States. Women aged 25 to 39 years accounted for 578 of these deaths, however, rates of maternal mortality are much higher among women aged 40 years and older. In 2022, the rate of maternal mortality among women aged 40 years and older in the U.S. was 87 per 100,000 live births, compared to a rate of 21 among women aged 25 to 39 years. The rate of maternal mortality in the U.S. has risen in recent years among all age groups. Differences in maternal mortality in the U.S. by race/ethnicity Sadly, there are great disparities in maternal mortality in the United States among different races and ethnicities. In 2022, the rate of maternal mortality among non-Hispanic white women was about 19 per 100,000 live births, while non-Hispanic Black women died from maternal causes at a rate of almost 50 per 100,000 live births. Rates of maternal mortality have risen for white and Hispanic women in recent years, but Black women have by far seen the largest increase in maternal mortality. In 2022, around 253 Black women died from maternal causes in the United States.

Life expectancy (from birth) in Mexico was below thirty until the 1920s, and over the course of the next hundred years, it is expected to have increased to roughly 75 in the year 2020. Although life expectancy has generally increased throughout Mexico's history, there were several times where the rate deviated from its previous trajectory. The main change coincided with the Mexican Revolution in the 1910s, and again in the early 2000s. Life expectancy has plateaued around 75 in the last fifteen years, and is now decreasing, because of unhealthy lifestyles, violent crime and an increase in the number of people with chronic illnesses (such as diabetes).

In 2023, the total fertility rate in Latin America & the Caribbean remained nearly unchanged at around 1.8 children per woman. Yet 2023 saw the lowest fertility rate in Latin America & the Caribbean with 1.8 children per woman. The total fertility rate is the average number of children that a woman of childbearing age (generally considered 15 to 44 years) is expected to have throughout her reproductive years. Unlike birth rates, which are based on the actual number of live births in a given population, fertility rates are estimates (similar to life expectancy) that apply to a hypothetical woman, as they assume that current patterns in age-specific fertility will remain constant throughout her reproductive years.Find more statistics on other topics about Latin America & the Caribbean with key insights such as death rate, total life expectancy at birth, and number of tuberculosis infections .
