Wikipedia has Mexico as one of the countries with most European decends, but honestly seems to high some other sources has Mexico as low 9% and that seems very low to me as well.

The Mexican population does have a significant European admixture to be consideral aboriginal...

Lived In Mexico 20 years before I moved to the United States, and full European Mexicans aren't rare at all.

Is Wikipedia considering admixtures as 55% 60-70% & 70-80% as white?

I estimate 65% of +80% Euro for Argentina, which is around 29.250 000.
For México 20% of +80% is around 28.000.000.

7% Whites/criollos
13% Castizos

Criollo/Castizo population in Mexico are mainly located in the northern half of the country.   The southern half is predominantly indigenous people. 

 

In Argentina, the population is 46 million however 30 million are Italians.  Around 12 million are Spaniards.

 

Brazil has the largest population of European ancestry while Uruguay has the largest percentage.

My impression is that several indigenous people and mestizos in Mexico are satisfied being themselves.  They are proud being descendants of Mayan and Aztec people. They want to know more about their history and culture.  There are 2 million Nahuatl speakers in Mexico today.  They wear t-shirts and ink tattoos on their skin that adorns Aztec heritage.

We don't consider mestizos as white.
