Se reduce pobreza laboral en un 4.4 %

Chiapas recorded Mexico’s largest annual decline in labor poverty during the first quarter of 2025, lifting hundreds of thousands of people out of food insecurity. Despite this progress, the state remains the most affected in the country, underscoring persistent regional inequalities and a significant gender gap that, although smaller than the national average, still disadvantages women. The data highlight a national crisis in which nearly two-thirds of the population cannot afford essential goods and services, with Chiapas uniquely exceeding 80 percent. This stark contrast between temporary local improvements and systemic national deprivation illustrates the complex reality of economic well-being, emphasizing that isolated gains do not resolve structural deficits. This report is particularly important for open-data enthusiasts, as it marks the institutional shift in poverty measurement from Coneval to INEGI. The transition raises critical concerns about methodological continuity and transparency, reminding us that the quality of open data and robust legislative frameworks are essential for reliable tracking of public policy and accountability.
