On average, 11 percent of Mexico's population was estimated to suffer from poor housing conditions in 2018. Among citizens with an indigenous background, that rate was almost three times higher. In that same year, 28.5 percent of Mexicans with an indigenous ancestry were considered socially vulnerable because of inadequate housing, whereas the share among the non-indigenous population stood at 9.2 percent.

According to the source, indigenous population includes any person who is part of an indigenous household, where the head of the household, his or her spouse and/or one of the ascendants (mother or father, stepmother or stepfather, grandparents, great-grandparents, great-great-grandparents or parents-in-law) declared that she or he spoke an indigenous language. In addition, it includes people who said they spoke an indigenous language and who were not part of these households.
The source does not provide data for the odd years.
