Many LIDCs have a shortage of safe, clean water and have low levels of health. They don't have factories, so they have to sell materials in their raw form. Raw materials usually sell for a much lower price meaning these countries earn less. LIDCs also have high levels of international migration, as people move to find work and a better standard of living. This results in fewer people of a working age and increased proportion of dependent people.
