It's an equally good thing if a Mexican family escapes from extreme poverty, but there are far fewer Mexicans actually living in extreme poverty. 1-2% of Mexico lives on $1.25/day (PPP adjusted) compared to 16% of China. For $2/day, the numbers are 9% and 36%. 15% of Mexico and 45% of China lacks improved sanitation, 6% vs 11% for improved water supply.
