Aging Cubans, Young Mexicans

The Hispanic demographic in the United States is stratified in a variety of ways, one of which is age.

Hispanic Business points out that over 20% of Cubans are 65 or older, while only 4% of Mexicans are seniors.

Approximately 37% of Mexicans are under 18, compared to just 20% of Cubans. The median age for Mexicans in the U.S. is 24.7 years, while Cubans have a median age of 42.7 years. (The median age of the entire U.S. population is 35.9 years.)
