Note: This chart shows Mexico's relative strengths and weaknesses in well-being compared to other OECD countries. Longer bars always indicate better outcomes (i.e. higher wellbeing), whereas shorter bars always indicate worse outcomes (lower well-being) ? including for negative indicators, marked with an *, which have been reverse-scored. Inequalities (gaps between top and bottom, differences between groups, people falling under a deprivation threshold) are shaded with stripes, and missing data in white.

Deprivations in Mexico Deprivations in selected indicators of current well-being, 2018 or latest available year

MEXICO

17%

of the population live in relative income poverty

18%

of poor households spend more than 40% of their income on housing costs

There is no data available on financial insecurity

5%

of the population report low life satisfaction

15%

say they have no friends or family to turn to in times of need

There is no data available on satisfaction with time use

Source: OECD (2020), How's Life? 2020: Measuring Well-Being

Note: Relative income poverty refers to the share of people with household disposable income below 50% of the national median; financial insecurity refers to the share of individuals who are not income poor, but whose liquid financial assets are insufficient to support them at the level of the national relative income poverty line for at least three months; housing cost overburden refers to the share of households in the bottom 40% of the income distribution spending more than 40% of their disposable income on housing costs; and low satisfaction with life and with time use refer to the share of the population rating their satisfaction as 4 or lower (on a 0-10 scale).
