Dementia refers to a group of neurodegenerative disorders characterized by progressive deterioration of cognitive skills and is one of the main pathologies associated with disability and dependency among older adults. Objective: The objective of the study was to analyze the relationship between the demographic factors and mortality from dementia in the Mexican population. Methods: This was a population-based, retrospective, and cross-sectional study. We employed an open-access national dementia-related mortality dataset. Results: The overall mortality rate in Mexico was 0.16/1000 inhabitants. The mean age of mortality was 84.37 ± 0.10 years. In the statistical analysis, sociodemographic variables that were associated with greater mortality due to dementia were age > 80 (OR 2.91, p < 0.001), single (OR 1.66, p < 0.001), female (OR 1.53, p < 0.001), an urban area (OR 1.42, p < 0.001), to have higher education (OR 1.23, p = 0.001), and residency in large cities (OR 1.33, p < 0.001). Conclusions: Mortality from dementia arises as a cosmopolitan phenomenon associated with socioeconomic factors.
