Away From The Border In Mexico

April 8, 2009 by SNSimmons.

With all the recent news reports regarding the increased criminal activity in Mexico one would think that most Mexicans are hiding out at home and that the country is under attack. Not so, Mexico is a vibrant country where people still live their daily lives as you or I do. Yes the country is suffering from areas prone to criminal activity, but, and this is important, not in all areas of the country.

Just like most cities in America, there are areas that are not the greatest places to go and do your shopping. Some U.S. cities have worse reputations than others, and in larger cities some people will not go to certain parts of their own city! This is the same for Mexico and Mexicans. What we, as Americans, hear on our nightly news reports is the worst of the worst crime. The actions of a few that overshadow the realities of most people’s everyday lives. News producers want stories that will increase viewers or readers. High crime and scary statistics do just that. Yes Mexico’s border with the U.S. has challenges, and these challenges are being addressed by politicians, but in the rest of the country, life goes on as usual.

Away from the border, where most of the crime we hear about is occurring, people go to work, come home, eat dinner, and get ready to go to work the next day. On weekends people play soccer, celebrate birthdays, get married, or go to visit Grandma. Just like in America.

Away from the border areas, you will find a friendly, intelligent, and creative people who are just as interested in achieving a degree by attending a university and getting a job to provide for their family as anyone in America desires to do. This dedication to the future is creating a fabulous environment and numerous opportunities for U. S. Businesses.

Away from the border you will find many American businesses operating successfully and reducing costs by outsourcing to Mexico. What makes Mexico great as an outsourcing destination: quality of the labor pool, reduced labor costs, similar time zones, reduced travel time and expense, and strong cultural ties and solid English skills; means nearshoring to Mexico is fast becoming the outsourcing choice of many U.S. companies.
