| Sumario: | The return of Mexicans from the United States is analyzed based on number and different migration processes during the period 2015-2020 that coincides in part with the anti-immigration context promoted by Trump. Different data sources are used, mainly the 2020 Population and Housing Census in Mexico. The results show that in the last five years return migration continued to decline, there was even a greater decrease in the case of family groups with the presence of minors born in the United States. Although a large profile of situations is identified, the return continues to be explained mainly by the migration of workers to that country who later return to Mexico to reunite with their families, an increase in the age of the returnees should be noted, which reflects part of the aging process of Mexicans residing in the United States. |
