Life expectancy (from birth) in Mexico was below thirty until the 1920s, and over the course of the next hundred years, it is expected to have increased to roughly 75 in the year 2020. Although life expectancy has generally increased throughout Mexico's history, there were several times where the rate deviated from its previous trajectory. The main change coincided with the Mexican Revolution in the 1910s, and again in the early 2000s. Life expectancy has plateaued around 75 in the last fifteen years, and is now decreasing, because of unhealthy lifestyles, violent crime and an increase in the number of people with chronic illnesses (such as diabetes).
