ABSTRACT The analysis of suicide mortality in Mexico has primarily focused on examining individual health conditions and identifying patterns based on age, gender, and regions. However, there is a growing interest in understanding how internal migration processes and poverty impact the increase in mortality due to violent causes, especially because it has been observed in recent decades that some economic development hubs, characterized by high immigration rates and heterogeneous socioeconomic inequalities, have also experienced high suicide mortality rates in the country. Therefore, it is pertinent to conduct research with a population-based perspective that spatially dissects the connection between suicide and prevailing living conditions in the population, internal migration flows, and other differential sociodemographic factors such as education, marital status, and employment status. In this context, this study aims to analyze the evolution of the primary sociodemographic factors associated with suicide, as well as their relationship with changes in migration and living conditions in the municipalities of the federal entities with the highest incidence of mortality due to this specific cause.
