The Mexican economy faces numerous challenges, including a large informal sector, the global decline of oil prices and other socioeconomic factors. Amid these challenges, Mexico's economy has close ties to the international and U.S. economies.
What's more, in 2015, only 27% of Mexico's adult population reported having a good job, which Gallup defines as 30 or more hours of work per week for an employer who provides a regular paycheck.
