For the first time in 85 years, leaving more Mexican immigrants from entering the United States

There is a shift from a historical movement in the United States today. According to the newest report from consulting Pew Research Center, more than a million Mexican immigrants and their families, including children born in the United States, returned to his country between 2009 and 2014. This represents a historic reversal as "only" 870,000 changed treated to the neighboring country during the same period. Ie more people left than came in, something that has not happened for decades.

Since 1929 when the Great Depression happened in the United States, the Mexican numbers to enter the country to the north had always been higher than the output. It is estimated that this figure has passed 12 million people, more than half illegally.

Among the reasons behind the change is the uneven economic recovery: since the US recession of 2009, industries in which most of the immigrants worked did not recover. The decrease in the birth rate in Mexico and the country's economic development also led to the back.

In addition, strengthening the security of the border between the two countries has increasingly hampered the entry of illegal immigrants in the United States, which has received a record number of immigrants from Central America in recent years.
