What the regional data actually says
Baja California Sur earns 2.7× what Chiapas earns
Same Mexico, same laws, same currency — but MXN 29,223 vs. MXN 10,724 for the median household. Geography is a salary multiplier.
Baja California Sur: the top of the country
Median household income here is MXN 29,223. A family earning MXN 29,223 feels middle-class in Baja California Sur — and wealthy almost everywhere else.
Chiapas: where the median is MXN 10,724
In Chiapas, half of households earn less than this. The same income elsewhere would feel very different.
The national median is MXN 19,818
It's the single number the country is built around — but it hides the fact that most people don't actually earn close to it.
