Abstract
GAXIOLA-ROBLES LINARES, Sergio Cuauhtémoc; LOZANO-KEYMOLEN, Daniel and MONTOYA-ARCE, Bernardino Jaciel. Inequality in homes with older adults in Mexico, 2015. Pap. poblac [online]. 2020, vol.26, n.103, pp.233-265. Epub Apr 14, 2021. ISSN 2448-7147. https://doi.org/10.22185/24487147.2020.103.09.
The objective of the article is to analyze the inequality between households with older adults in Mexico in 2015. The source of information is the Intercensal Survey 2015 of the National Institute of Statistics and Geography (INEGI). The methodological proposal of this research is based on the application of a Multiple Correspondence Analysis that allows studying the relationship between the variables of households with older adults in Mexico based on three dimensions: individual, household and context. The results indicate the presence of permanent inequalities among households with people aged 60 and over, in addition to significant differences in assets, family structure and government aid, which impacts the living conditions of older adults in Mexico in 2015.
