En este trabajo se presentan, de manera general, tanto las causas que históricamente originaron la inmigración de trabajadores mexicanos a esta localidad como su participación en el mercado laboral, con el objetivo de aproximarnos al estudio de la movilidad laboral del trabajador inmigrante e identificar algunos factores que intervinieron para que se llevara a cabo.
