Pascua Yaqui Tribe Demographic Analysis
Introduction This analysis of Pascua Yaqui Tribe was undertaken by the Arizona Rural Policy Institute (ARPI) a
unit of the Center for Business Outreach in the W.A. Franke College of Business at Northern
Arizona University for the planning department of the Pascua Yaqui Tribe. The ARPI has
produced the Demographic Profile for Pascua Yaqui Tribe, with the latest information available
from the 2015 American Community Survey (5-year estimates) American Indian and Alaska
Native Tables. This document is provided to Arizona tribes as a product of the EDA University
Center Grant provided by the EDA to the Center for Business Outreach at Northern Arizona
University.
Since 2010 the American Community Survey (ACS) has been tasked with producing population,
demographic and housing unit estimates for the United States on an annual and 5 year series
basis. This analysis is entirely based the American Community Survey, 5-year estimate data
for the period 2011 to 2015 and is annotated in the document as ACS 2015 (5-year estimates).
The 2015 ACS 5-year estimates are based on data collected between January 2011 and
December 2015. The data were used to analyze household income, poverty rates, employment,
language use and household characteristics for Pascua Yaqui Tribe. Only the 5-year estimates
are used as this is the only data that is provided for small population areas, the 5 year data
represent the average characteristics over the 5-year period.
Demographic characteristics are outlined by three separate levels, the State of Arizona, Pima
County and the Pascua Yaqui Tribe. Comparisons between the State of Arizona, and Pima
County serve to provide further levels of comparison when examining demographic
characteristics of the tribe. Pima County was chosen for comparison as all Pascua Yaqui tribal
lands and communities fall within Pima County.
Appendix A contains the margin of error estimates to be used to calculate the estimates for the
American Community Survey data.

Population The Pascua Yaqui Tribe grew at a strong rate of 15.0% between the last census in 2010 and the
2011-2015 period. The rate of population growth is higher than both the State and Pima
County. See Table 1 and Figure 1.

Gender There are slightly more males (51.0%) than females (49.0%) within the Pascua Yaqui Tribe.
The gender ratios in the Pascua Yaqui tribe are opposite to the State and County ratios where
there are slightly more females (50.3% and 50.8%) respectively than males (49.7% and 49.2%)
respectively. See Table 2.

Age The Pascua Yaqui Tribe is dominated by those under 19 years of age. The under-19 year
population accounts for 43.8 percent of all tribal members, representing a far larger portion of
tribal members than the same age group does for the State (27.1%) and Pima County (25.3%).
The fact that more than two-fifths of the tribe is younger than 19 years of age carries with it
some fairly important policy implications. The large portion of younger tribal members
influences the provision of health and educational services as well as poverty and workforce
issues as well.
On the other hand, the tribe has fewer members who are 65 years or older. This age group,
those who have retired and are out of the workforce account for only 4.8 percent of tribal
members when compared to 15.4 percent for the state and 17.1 percent for the county. Once
more the reduction at the very bottom of the age cohort indicates the overall youthful profile
of the tribe. Finally, those age 20 to 64 years account for 51.4 percent of the tribal members,
which compares favorably to the State (57.5%) and the County (57.6%). The large number of
tribal young persons will have an effect on the development of the tribal workforce in the
future. See Table 3, and Figure 2.

A population pyramid, also called an age structure diagram, is a graphical illustration that shows
the distribution of various age groups in a population (typically that of a country or region of
the world), which forms the shape of a pyramid when the population is growing.
The population pyramid below (Figure 3) illustrates the difference between males and females
for the 5 year age cohorts. The under-20 age cohorts are somewhat symmetrical indicating that
there are a somewhat even number of males and females. At the top of the age pyramid there
are more males than females. This is an anomaly as demographically women tend to live
longer than men. The age pyramid provides an illustrated snapshot of the age structure of the
tribal members during the period 2011-2915.

Population Under 20 Years Children those under 20 years of age account for 43.8 percent of all tribal members. There
are 2,031 males and 1,951 female tribal members, of those 48.7 percent of all males are under
age 20 and 38.8 percent of all females are under age 20. There are more males in each age
group, with the greatest disparity in the 10 to 19 year age group. See Table 4.

Median Age The median age (the point where 50% of the population are above and 50% are below) for the
Pascua Yaqui tribal members is 23 years, with males slightly younger at 21 years and females at
24 years. The median age of tribal members is considerably lower than the State (37 years of
age) or the County 38 years. This once more serves to emphasize the overall young age of
tribal members. See Figure 4.

Race Not surprisingly, the majority of Pascua Yaqui tribal members identify themselves as American
Indian or Alaska Native alone (83.2%), while the remaining 17 percent are split between white
alone, some other race alone, and two or more races. This stands in strong contrast to the
State which is 78 percent white alone, and the County which is 78 percent white alone. See

Ethnicity In terms of ethnicity, one-fourth (26.3%) of Pascua Yaqui tribal members identify themselves as
Hispanic or Latino. This is lower than the surrounding County where one-third (35.7%) identify
themselves as Hispanic or Latino and lower than the State where 30.3 percent identify
themselves as Hispanic or Latino. See Table 7, and Figure 5.

Household Size In 2011-2015, there were 875 households on the Pascua Yaqui Tribe, with an average
household size of 4.5 persons and an average family size of 4.7 persons as well. The average
household size of 4 persons is larger than the State average (2.7 persons) or the County average
(2.5 persons). The average family size for tribal members is also larger than the State and the
County, where the average is 3.3 and 3.1 persons, respectively. See Figure 6.

Households The next section of the demographic profile focuses on households and their structure. The
Census defines a “household” as a person or group of people who occupy a housing unit. The
“householder” is a person in whose name the housing unit is owned, being bought, or rented. A
“family household” consists of a householder and one or more people living together in the
same household who are related to the householder by birth, marriage, or adoption — it may
also include people unrelated to the householder. If the householder is married and living with
his/her spouse, then the household is designated a “married-couple household.” The remaining
types of family households not maintained by a married couple are designated by the sex of the
householder. A “nonfamily household” consists of a person living alone or a householder who
shares the home with nonrelatives only; for example, with roommates or an unmarried partner.
Family households (85.3%) predominate in the Pascua Yaqui Tribe, although traditional married
couple families are in the minority (29.3%), at rates lower than the State (47.4%) or the County
(43.5%). Households headed by a female head of household (single moms) account for two-
fifths (42.5%) of all households. Almost three-fourths (71.8%) of all households are either
married couple families (29.3%) or households headed by single mothers (42.5%). See Table 8
and Figure 7.

In terms of household characteristics 22.2 percent of all households are headed by a
householder, lower than the State (37.2%) or County (40.1%) of households are headed by a
householder. Spouse headed households comprise a minority of Pascua Yaqui tribal households
(6.2%) far less than the State (17.6%) or the County (17.4%). Children comprise more than two-
fifths of all households (43.0%), greater than the State (30.4%) or the County (28.2%).
Households on the Pascua Yaqui Tribe are four times more likely to contain other relatives
(22.1%) than the State (8.2%) or the County (7.1%). See Table 9 and Figure 8.

Family households dominate among Pascua Yaqui tribal members (85.3%), compared to 65.6
percent for the State and 61.6 percent for the County. Non-family households (14.7%) account
for more than one tenth of Pascua Yaqui tribal member households, less than State (34.4%) or
County (38.4%). Husband and wife families account for only one-third (38.4%) of households,
whereas residents of the State (47.4%) are more likely to live in husband and wife households
and the County (25.0%) is less likely to have this household structure. Households on the
Pascua Yaqui Tribe are three times more likely to be headed by a female householder (42.5%)
with no husband present than the State (12.7%) or County (12.8%). Households on the Pascua
Yaqui Tribe are twice as likely (60.2%) to have children under the age of 18 living in the
household, than the State (31.8%) and the County (28.2%). See Table 10, and Figure 9.

Children Under 18 Years Age Living with Grandparent Children under age 18 are three times more likely to live with grandparents on the Pascua Yaqui
Tribe (7.6%) than they are at the State (2.5%) or in the County (2.1%). There are few differences
between the proportions of children by age living with grandparents; the only exception is that
slightly more children 5 years or older who live with their grandparents (58.2%) than at the
State or County levels. See Table11 and Figure 10.

Household Income
The median household income for the Pascua Yaqui Tribe is $28,087, less than both the County
($46,162) and the State ($50,255). Tribal members are more likely to have lower household
incomes than either the State or the County. In fact households are almost twice as likely to
have incomes of less the $25,000 (43.5%) than is the State (24.0%), or the County (27.1%).
Tribal members (27.7%) are likely to have the same household incomes between $25,000 and
$49,999 as the State (25.7%) and the County (26.2%). Correspondingly, tribal households are
more than half as likely (7.2%) to have incomes over $100,000 than the State (19.9%) and the
County (17.5%). See Table 12, and Figure 11.

Poverty Poverty rates on the Pascua Yaqui Tribe (46%) are more than twice the State (18%) and the
County (19%) rates. More than half the children under 18 years of age (53%) are considered
to be living in poverty, while one-third (42%) of those between 18 and 64 also live in poverty.
More than one-third (38%) of tribal members over 65 years of age live in poverty, five times the
State (9%) and the County (9%) rates. Correspondingly high numbers of families (41%) live in
poverty. See Table 15 and Figure 13.

Children in Poverty The rates of children under 18 years of age living in poverty are higher for the tribe (46%) than
for the State (18%) or the County (19%). The largest proportion of children under age 18 living
in poverty is for the under 5 year age cohort (13.5%), where the tribe has a rate that is twice
the State (6.3%) and higher than the County (9.5%). ACS Table B17001 was used to create this

Persons in Poverty The Census Bureau uses a set of money income thresholds that vary by family size and
composition to determine who is poor. If a family’s income is less than a family’s threshold,
then that family and every individual in it, is considered poor. Further the ratio of income to
poverty can be used to measure the degree or depth of poverty. The ratio of income to poverty
compares a person’s income with their poverty threshold, and expresses the comparison as a
fraction. For example, a poverty ratio of 1.0 (income at 100% of poverty level) means a person
is living right at the poverty line; a ratio of 0.5 (income at 50% of poverty level) would mean
that a person is living in a household making only half the income designated as the poverty
threshold. The Census Bureau describes those with family incomes below one half of their
poverty threshold as being “severely poor.” People with incomes at or above their threshold
but below 125 percent of their threshold are classified as “near poor.”
One-third (46.3%) of those living on Pascua Yaqui Tribe are classified as “severely poor,” with
poverty ratios that ranges from below 0.5 to .99. These rates are twice those of the State
(18.2%) and the County (19.2%). A further 6.6 percent of tribal members are classified as “near
poor” with poverty ratios between 1.00 and 1.24. These data indicate that 53 percent of the
Pascua Yaqui households are living in poverty, while the remaining 47percent are classified as
not living in poverty. See Table 17 and Figure 14. ACS Table C17002 was used to create this
table.

Households Receiving Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) One-half (54.9%) of all households on the Pascua Yaqui Reservation receive assistance from the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP). This rate is at least three times higher than the State (13.5%) or the County (15.0%). One-tenth of households receiving SNAP assistance (11.4%) have at least one person in the household over 60 years of age. This rate is higher than the County (4.1%), and more than three times the State (3.5%) rate. See Table 18. ACS Table S2201 was used to create this table.

APPENDIX A: THE PASCUA YAQUI TRIBE
AMERICAN COMMUNITY SURVEY 2011-2015, 5-YEAR ESTIMATES MARGIN OF ERROR ESTIMATES
39
ACS Margin of Error Estimates The ACS estimates are based on data from a sample of housing units and people in the population, not the full populations. For this reason, ACS estimates have a degree of uncertainty associated with them, called sampling error. In general, the larger the sample, the smaller the level of sampling error. The ACS calculates standard errors for each estimate produced and publishes the 90 percent confidence level margins of error (the Census Bureau standard). You can be 90 percent confident that the interval within the margin of error from the estimate includes the true value. Users can add and subtract the margin of error value from the estimate to find the top and bottom of the range within which the ACS is 90 percent confident that their estimate lies in.
Understanding margin of error A term you will often come across in survey research is "within the margin of error." Most people hear the term frequently during election season when results from polls are reported. Many surveys and polls collect data from a representative sample of a population to make determinations about a larger population. Results would be somewhat different each time the survey is administered to a different representative sample. The margin of error accounts for these differences by calculating an upper and lower boundary the true result would likely fall between if every member of population was surveyed. For example, in the case of Pascua Yaqui Tribe the ACS has established that there are 3,982 persons present on the Pascua Yaqui Reservation. The survey also indicates that there are 2,031 males and 1,951 females in the total population, with a margin of error of plus or minus (±) 158 males and (±) 157 females. See Table 2 margin of error estimates. The margin of error tells us that if the same survey were administered to the Pascua Yaqui Tribal members again, it is highly probable that the true population for males would be between 1,873 and 2,189 males and similarly that the true population of females would be between 1,794 and 2,108.
