Geo-Mexico explains Mexico’s growing north-south, urban-rural divide in terms of economic production, income, quality of life, culture, and voting patterns. It traces the historical processes behind Mexico’s current patterns of landforms, population, urbanization, transportation, communications, tourism and migration.
