![]() The study found that there was an increase in indigenous ancestry as one traveled towards to the Southern states in Mexico, while the indigenous ancestry declined as one traveled to the Northern states in the country, such as Sonora.In the 2004 elections, Democratic candidate John Kerry received 88% of the black vote ( CNN.com Election 2004). The study also noted that whereas Mestizo individuals from the southern state of Guerrero showed on average 66% of indigenous ancestry, those from the northern state of Sonora displayed about 61.6% European ancestry. The study found that the Mestizo population of these Mexican states were on average 55% of indigenous ancestry followed by 41.8% of European, 1.8% of African, and 1.2% of East Asian ancestry. In May 2009, Mexico’s National Institute of Genomic Medicine issued a report on a genomic study of 300 mestizos from the states of Guerrero, Sonora, Veracruz, Yucatán, Zacatecas, and Guanajuato. This is from a study on Mexico’s demographics: 80% of the Mexican population was classed as mestizo (defined as “being racially mixed in some degree”). ![]() African contribution ranges from 2.8% in Sonora to 11.13% in Veracruz. Sonora shows the highest European contribution (70.63%) and Guerrero the lowest (51.98%) where we also observe the highest Asian contribution (37.17%). Here’s a picture of typical kids from Sonora: Īn 18th century indigenous woman with her Spanish husband and their childĪ study by the National Institute of Genomic Medicine, Mexico reported that Mestizo Mexicans are 58.96% European, 35.05% “Asian” (Amerindian), and 5.03% African. Even the indigenous tribes differ from north to south. We have different indigenous tribes (yaqui,mayo,seris,etc) than those of the south. We have more european percent but we also have indigenous blood and we are damn proud of it. All of my family is average to tall in height, so I really don’t know where you get that all people from the north are short. Maybe you only go to the border towns of these northern states, and that’s why you have this idea of us but most of the people you see in the border towns are people from all over Mexico mainly the south,who come up to the North to sell to the tourists. But you are actually wrong in saying that the nothern states have the shortest and in fact I think I know the study you are referring to, and guess what Sonora showed to have the highest percent of European decent, and it’s actually a northern state. All over Mexico you will find people from different races, heights, and skin color. I doubt you have even traveled, when i went to northern mexico, i only saw ugly short brown fat dwarfs, did i mention northern mexicans are the fattest in Mexico? you can look it up, i wouldnt want to embarrass you if i posted the articles here so people can see the reality of northern mexico Menonitas do not make up the whole population of Northern Mexico you idiot, keep believing that, Mexico did a height and weight measurement a few years ago and it turned out that the people from Michoacan were the tallest, both female and male while northern mexicans and southern mexicans the shortest, keep being in denial about northern mexicans being taller, you make me laugh, I have been to northern mexico like sonora, sinaloa, monterrey, baja california and i am taller than all of them, also you people are not lighter, the lightest mexicans come from Jalisco and Michoacan, they are the whitest and tallest in Mexico, Mexico did the study and you can look for it, you are in denial ![]() (Thats what you get for hablar then norte señor) When I go out im like snow white with my DWARFS! So very incorrect my friend. If I sum up about the state you mention and yours, you are (or in my experience) have been mostly very short. Im only average at 5’7, but find to be above average around other paisas. And to give you a little F.Y.I., there are a lot of much whiter decent up north because of the high number of “Menonitas” that are in states like Chihuahua, Cuahuila and other states. Than any other mixtures as by ports like Veracruz is, dear. Any Mexican knows that there is a higher chance than a northern person will be taller because of the chance them being more of a “Mestizo”. And by your “short mestizos” comment is incorrect. You are might be correct about the diversity part only because by the ports there is more of caribean/african blood mixture. If I had completely read thru your post instead of just scanning through it I would have not wasted my time. That was before I realized you were from V. Ok, Im from the north and just registered here to set you straight.
