Los inmigrantes y los trabajadores transfronterizos son comparados en términos de su magnitud, características socioeconómicas, estructura ocupacional e ingresos. De 2000 a 2010 se observa un aumento en el número de inmigrantes y una caída en la cantidad de trabajadores transfronterizos. Por otro lado, la población inmigrante tiende a ser más joven, tener mayores niveles de educación, estar empleada en mejores ocupaciones y percibir mayores ingresos que los trabajadores transfronterizos.El Colegio de la Frontera Norte2015-01-28info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://fronteranorte.colef.mx/index.php/fronteranorte/article/view/9710.17428/rfn.v27i53.97Frontera Norte; Vol. 27 Núm. 53 (2015): enero-junio, 2015; 5-352594-02600187-7372reponame:Frontera Norteinstname:EL COLEGIO DE LA FRONTERA NORTEinstacron:COLEFenghttps://fronteranorte.colef.mx/index.php/fronteranorte/article/view/97/25Derechos de autor 2015 Frontera Norteinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessoai:revistas.colef.mx:article/972024-08-22T18:15:04Z
