摘要
Standard methodologies for determining the number of foreign-born residents living in a nation cannot be used to count the number of US citizens living in Mexico primarily because US citizens are able to move back and forth between the two countries. In this article, data shortcomings are analyzed and a case study of a small coastal community is presented. Forty-four interviews of Mexican and US residents provide insight into issues such as resource usage, assimilation, and other impacts created by a growing foreign population.
