| Abstract: |
The twin border cities of El Paso, Texas, and Ciudad
Juárez, Chihuahua, were known in the 16th century as
the single city of El Paso del Norte. Since those days,
El Paso del Norte has changed in every aspect: geographic,
demographic, political, cultural and economic.
As a result, today the two cities are characterized by
totally distinct economies. Further, they clearly represent
the economic differences that exist along the
entire U.S.?Mexico border.
This article, the first of two parts, will focus on the
demographic profile of El Paso del Norte by comparing
census data for the two cities. Part 2 will look at this
unique region?s labor force, employment and income
characteristics.
