A Look At The World Busiest Border - San Ysidro, San Diego by eluquenson(m): 7:49am On Nov 25, 2013 |
San Ysidro is a district in the south of San Diego. immediately north of the U.S.-Mexico border. It neighbors Otay Mesa West to the north, Otay Mesa to the east, and Nestor and the Tijuana River Valley to the west. Major thoroughfares include Beyer Boulevard and San Ysidro Boulevard. Its one of the most dangerous & most notorious smuggling land borders in the world. San Ysidro is home to the world's busiest land border crossing, where U.S. Interstate 5 crosses into Mexico at Tijuana. In the 2005 U.S. fiscal year, more than 17 million vehicles and 50 million people entered the United States at the San Ysidro Port of Entry. The great majority of these are workers (both of Mexican and U.S. nationality) commuting from Tijuana to jobs in the greater San Diego area and throughout southern California. There is also reverse traffic, both of workers travelling to maquiladoras in Mexico and those purchasing services or seeking entertainment in Tijuana. Crossing times are often slow at San Ysidro, particularly for those entering the United States in cars. For this reason many[who?] cross on foot, the line for which is frequently much faster than the vehicle line. Some foot travellers[who?] own a car in each country, and keep them in one of the large parking lots located near the border post, or use the respective public transportation systems of both cities (both systems have a bus station built solely to serve the border crossing point, and the San Diego Trolley runs from down-town San Diego to the border crossing). San Ysidro is also where ICE deports the most Mexicans back into Mexico; in 2003, this was 360,172 people. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6g_DPGKgT6A
