PIP: Infant mortality in Mexico has been declining since 1950. Between 1950- 60 it declined by more than 30% going from 132 to 90.3/1000 live births; from 1960-70 it declined by 15%; by 1970-1980 by 31% and from 1980-87 by 14% going from 53.1 to 46.6/1000. During 1950-1988 mortality among boys was 12% higher than among girls. The states with the highest infant mortality rates (IMR) in 1988 were: 1) Oaxaca with 73.6/1000; 2) Puebla with 60.1/1000 and 3) Hidalgo with 59.1/1000. Those states with the lowest IMR were Mexico City with 35.7 and Nuevo Leon with 32.3. It was found that IMR were 4 times higher in places with less than 2500 inhabitants as well as in places without water, light or electricity. However, the mother's education is the most important factor determining IMR.^ieng
