One of 42 border cities, Tijuana is home to nearly 1.5 million people. Located just 18 miles south of San Diego, over 40 million people cross over this border every year. Though they are just miles apart, Mexico and the United States remain drastically different countries.

In 2010, the difference in GDP per capita between the United States and Mexico was over $30,000. That number means very little unless you consider it in the context of the everyday lives of the Mexican people who live in abject poverty. Many cannot afford even the basic necessities of life: food, clothing and shelter.
