On 13 December 2022, it was proposed that this article be moved to American Mexicans. The result of the discussion was not moved.

Defining Mexican of American descent

I think people are a little confused about what group of people this article is describing, so I think that should be made clear... A Mexican of American descent is either an immigrant to Mexico from the United States, or a person born in Mexico with and American parent, grandparent, etc. This article should not be including Mexican immigrants to the United States, nor Americans of Mexican descent. Thus, Lila Downs and Herculez Gomez are Mexicans of American descent, while Frankie J and Kid Cudi are not. The pictures of the latter two should probably be removed from the article.

Largest American communities in Mexico

American communities in Mexico include Guadalajara, Tijuana (thought to have the largest American colony), San Felipe, Baja California and Cancun, areas known for tourism, business and retirement. Currently about a million American expatriates live in Mexico, but include the number of descendants such as US-born Mexicans returning to their parents' homeland, there could be 3.5 million. Mexico's thriving car manufacturing factories attract workers from the US and throughout Mexico instead of entering the US for work. 67.49.89.214 (talk) 05:17, 1 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

World War 1

Around 1917 a lot of draft dodgers (so-called), went to Mexico; some famous later. Katherine Anne Porter and other left-wing or liberal writers and artists, photographers also went at the time. 1940s/50s exiles include leading CPUSA members, writer George Oppen and others.--80.157.2.254 (talk) 16:46, 9 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

American immigration to Mexico → Americans in Mexico – WP:PRECISE. This article include past and present Americans in Mexico. Alexander Iskandar (talk) 17:12, 18 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose. SDSU students having beers and tacos in Tijuana are "Americans in Mexico" and are not what this article is about. --В²C ☎ 18:19, 18 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose per B2C, the current title is more accurate. TonyBallioni (talk) 23:52, 24 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Coordinate article

If I flip this title it would be Mexican immigration to America. Where should that redirect? 70.51.193.44 (talk) 12:13, 2 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

The main article is Mexican Americans, though it could have its own sub-articles. Dimadick (talk) 08:29, 5 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

American immigration to Mexico → American Mexicans – This article is not mainly about the topic of immigration but more generally about a group of people, as the article covers dual citizens of the two nations as well as their culture. ★Trekker (talk) 22:45, 13 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose. They're not American Mexicans. They're American emigrants to Mexico or Mexicans of American descent. American diaspora in Mexico may be a better title per the category. -- Necrothesp (talk) 14:17, 14 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
- How is it different from the inverse, Mexican Americans?★Trekker (talk) 12:34, 18 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  - It isn't. That's bad titling as well. Sadly it's become too engrained to change. But we don't usually use the construction for anyone outside the United States and it doesn't create any sort of precedent. -- Necrothesp (talk) 11:32, 19 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose i agree with Necrothesp Rjensen (talk) 11:38, 19 December 2022 (UTC).[reply]
