Description

SIZEMX identifies the population of the locality within Mexico in all sample years. The unharmonized source variables from 1995, 2000, and 2015 samples provide greater detail between 15,000 and 100,000 inhabitants. Unharmonized source variables from 1990, 2005, and 2005 samples provide more detail between 100,000 and more inhabitants.

The full set of geography variables for Mexico can be found in the IPUMS International Geography variables list. For cross-national geographic analysis on the first and second major administrative level of any country refer to GEOLEV1, and GEOLEV2. More information on IPUMS-International geography can be found here.

Comparability — General

SIZEMX is harmonized such that it is comparable across samples but greater detail can be found in the unharmonized source variables.
