Este tipo de uniones aumentó notablemente durante la última década en el país y en la región fronteriza del norte. Esta región presenta una interesante heterogeneidad porque en algunos estados la proporción de unión libre empata e incluso ya supera a la de los matrimonios, mientras que en otros tal proporción sigue siendo muy inferior a la de los matrimonios. Es interesante observar que una geografía que va de este a oeste y de sur a norte se dibuje siguiendo los niveles de menores a mayores proporciones de uniones libres en la región. El Colegio de México A.C.2013-09-01info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdftext/xmlhttps://estudiosdemograficosyurbanos.colmex.mx/index.php/edu/article/view/144910.24201/edu.v28i3.1449Estudios Demográficos y Urbanos; Vol. 28 No. 3 (2013): 84, September-December; 645 - 679Estudios Demográficos y Urbanos; Vol. 28 Núm. 3 (2013): 84, septiembre-diciembre; 645 - 6792448-65150186-7210reponame:Estudios Demográficos y Urbanosinstname:EL COLEGIO DE MÉXICOinstacron:COLMEXspahttps://estudiosdemograficosyurbanos.colmex.mx/index.php/edu/article/view/1449/1442https://estudiosdemograficosyurbanos.colmex.mx/index.php/edu/article/view/1449/1865Derechos de autor 2013 Estudios Demográficos y Urbanoshttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessoai:oai.estudiosdemograficosyurbanos.colmex.mx:article/14492024-08-16T22:12:11Z

description The formation of common law marriages and consensual unions has long been part of the marital structure of Mexico. This type of unions increased markedly during the last decade in Mexico including its northern border region. This region is intriguing-ly heterogeneous because in some states the proportion of cohabitation is as high as or even higher than that of marriages, whereas in others this proportion is still much lower than that of marriages. It is interesting to note that the levels of lower to higher proportions of consensual unions in the region run from east to west and from south to north.
