The focus has been mainly on the migration that transits the country with the aim of reaching the United States. In this environment, the foreign have been affected by a great analytical attention, although there are appreciations about their volume and public incidence. In this text, based in four statistic research, characterized the socio-demographic and socio-labor level, the stock of immigrants from Guatemala, Honduras and El Salvador, from 1990 to 2015, in a comparative exercise with the rest of the Latin American populations in Mexico. The analysis allow us to concluded that there are similar behaviors in indicators associated with family structure, gender and economic participation, but with differences in terms of age structure, levels of schooling, place of residence and variables associated with labor insertion.

Keywords : Latin American collectives; immigrant workforce; socio-demographic and socio-labor indicators.
