Life expectancy is theoretical and death rate is a real measurement. life expectancy can be used to predict the death rate if you know the average age of a population.

Although the previous answer above is true, it does not answer the question. Life expectancy affects death rate as if the life expectancy is high, like it is in many High Income Countries (HIC's), the death rate is higher, because aging populations will inevitably have rising death rates as older people are more likely to die, than younger people.

//Saying this, if the life expectancy is low, then often the death rate is high (like in many LIC's) as this is a result of poor medical care (or access), lack of clean drinking water and poor sanitation.\\

Life expectancy and Death Rate are inversely related. A higher life expectancy generally corresponds to a lower death rate, as people are living longer and surviving into older age. Conversely, a lower life expectancy indicates a higher death rate, with people likely dying earlier in life.

Is Mexico's death rate higher than US?

Mexico has a lower overall death rate than the US. Mexico's death rate is 4.9 persons per 1,000 while the US rate is 8.39 persons per 1,000. Keeping in mind that life expectancy is a better measure of the conditions of life than is the death rate. The death rate can be deceptive because it is influenced by the age structure of the population. Since Mexico has a much younger population than the US its rate would be much lower for the same life expectancy. In fact the US (about 78) has a higher life expectancy than Mexico (about 76).
