Average Weight of Mexican Women: 2018 Data

According to Mexico's National Institute of Public Health (INSP), the average weight for women aged 20+ in 2018 was 63.4 kg (140 lbs).

This national average masks significant variation by:

• Age – Weight tends to increase until ~60, then decline.
• Region – Urban vs. rural, north vs. south differences.
• Socioeconomic status – Complex relationship with nutrition access.
• Indigenous vs. non-Indigenous populations.
• Lifestyle – Diet, physical activity, genetics.

Obesity rates have risen sharply in Mexico; by 2018, ~75% of adult women were overweight or obese (BMI ≥25), a major public health concern.
