Background
Mexico is home to 126 million people, but many face challenges, with 60% living in poverty and 80% in Mexico City struggling even more. Indigenous people, who make up 9.4% of the population, often face discrimination and deeper poverty. Religion is central to many, with 78% identifying as Catholic, 11% as Protestant or Evangelical, and another 11% following other beliefs. Many children, about 11 million under age 15, work to help support their families. While Spanish is the main language, Mexico is very diverse, with nearly 300 other languages spoken.
