Growth in Mexico affects the United States in many ways. Chapters one and two analyze one possible channel: immigration to the United States and its impact on crime there. Chapter three assesses how industrialization in Mexico affects the country's human capital accumulation, and hence its long term growth potential.

Growth in Mexico affects the United States in many ways. Chapters one and two analyze one possible channel: immigration to the United States and its impact on crime there. Chapter three assesses how industrialization in Mexico affects the country's human capital accumulation, and hence its long term growth potential.

In chapters one and two, I use data from the Uniform Crime Reports and from the Current Population Survey to analyze the effect that immigrants had on crime rates in the United States during 1994-2004. I use an instrumental variable and MSA fixed effects. The interaction of the historical share of all immigrants located in an MSA and the overall immigrant stock in the USA in a given year is used as an instrument for the immigrant stock in an MSA that year.

Chapter one focuses on immigrants' impact on violent and property crimes. MSAs with more immigrants exhibit lower crime rates, but heterogeneity exists within these findings. Latin American/Caribbean nationals and East Asians are associated with lower crime rates, but Mexicans are not. Immigrants' beneficial impact on crime rates is also muted the more native-born Hispanics or inner city dwellers the MSA has. This heterogeneity is partly driven by immigrant selection along the lines of education, age and gender. Chapter one also tests whether, and finds no evidence that, immigrants increase crimes indirectly by harming the labor market opportunities of African Americans and pushing them into the illegal sector.

Chapter two focuses on the impact of immigrants on drug arrest rates, and provides evidence that arrest rates are a reasonable proxy for crime rates. MSAs with more immigrants have lower drug production/sale arrest rates, except if the immigrants are Mexican or Colombian. All immigrants lower drug possession arrest rates.

Chapter three assesses how maquila-led industrialization affected the accumulation of human capital in Mexico during the 1990s, using census data and municipio fixed effects. Manufacturing employment is associated with higher educational attainment for seven to 15 year olds, but the educational benefits disappear for older children. The results in this chapter are preliminary - unobserved time-varying municipio characteristics may exist.
