This project expands the data collection of the Mexican Migration Project (MMP) to new communities in the western states of Durango, Aguascalientes, Colima, and Sinaloa and in the border states of Nuevo Leon, Baja California and Chihuahua. It also includes new quantitative data files on spouse's work history, macroeconomic and labor market conditions in the USA, and conditions in the Mexican political economy. Moreover, it adds new qualitative data files containing the votive texts of migrants and their families and texts of ethnographic interviews with respondents about their experiences migrating to and from the USA and negotiating U.S. society.
