Más de 40 % de adultos mayores sin empleo remunerado en México

The National Institute of Statistics and Geography (INEGI) presents vital data on Mexico’s older population, highlighting their growing demographic weight and gender disparities in the formal economy and household care responsibilities. This information is crucial for open data initiatives, as it provides clear indicators for designing inclusive public policies and analyzing the sustainability of the pension system in the face of population aging. The health of older adults shows high rates of chronic diseases and sleep difficulties, although there is relatively good access to medical services. These open data sources enable the identification of gaps in preventive care and in the management of conditions such as hypertension, thereby promoting transparency in health management and the evaluation of the effectiveness of both public and private health systems. On the other hand, the care burden falls disproportionately on women and younger people, with significant hours dedicated to informal support. The release of these statistical data is relevant because it makes visible the unpaid care economy, driving the creation of robust databases that underpin discussions on gender equity and the need for adequate social infrastructure to ensure well-being in old age.
