Why This Matters
Mexico's declining population growth rate, now below 1% annually, poses significant demographic challenges for the country's economic and social development, as a shrinking workforce and aging population could strain public resources. The low fertility rate of 1.6 children per woman also underscores the need for policymakers to address demographic shifts and implement strategies to mitigate their impact. This trend has far-reaching implications for Mexico's long-term prosperity and competitiveness.
