Dependency ratios and ageing index by state, Mexico Total dependency ratio (people aged 0–14 and 65 and over per 100 people aged 15–64), child and old-age dependency ratios, and the ageing index (people 65 and over per 100 children under 15). Values for 2025 are CONAPO's projections from its 2023 demographic reconciliation (registered births and deaths and the 2020 Census through 2019, projected thereafter), as published; they are model-based estimates, not counts of registered events.
