MIGRATION

Migration is a topic that is heard and seen every day. What I can tell you from personal experience, since I am from Tijuana, which has the busiest border around the world with San Diego, California. It's amazing how it becomes a matter of our daily lives, because without realizing it, those people who tried to cross to reach the "American dream" or who are on a lark become part of the "normal" population of the city.

 It is also interesting to us that have grown in the same city and see how people is becoming a mixture of different cultures, there comes a point where we became just one. It is very common to meet people from different countries, especially from Latin America, because there are several generations that have grown up in the city from those people who ever tried to cross into the United States.

Just as there are many interesting and positive points, there are the negative ones, where we can watch the overcrowding is increasing every year, as well as increasing the homeless people, which at some point if these people can not get ahead, they end up staying in the street and begin to increase crime rates in the city. I want to clarify that I am not saying that all people attempting to cross the US are criminals, but if it's something you notice. But as I said earlier, there are also positive things about these people and I know quite a few outsiders who have managed to get ahead with their own business and now they are well recognized in the city.
