The City of Mexicali has a population of 689,775, according to the 2010 census, while the population of the entire metropolitan area reaches 996,826.

Mexicali's economy has been historically based on agricultural products, and to this day it remains a large sector of the economy.

Mexicali is the national pioneer for the aerospace industry in Mexico, when Rockwell Collins (former Hughes Tool Company) decided to establish an operation in 1966. Rockwell Collins it's the oldest company under the maquiladora program nationwide. Founded on March 14, 1903, Mexicali is situated on the Mexico–United States border adjacent to its sister city Calexico, California, with which it forms a dual-state, international population center, Calexico–Mexicali. == History == 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Mexicali」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
