Women and Change: Ch. 3

This chapter discusses the mobility of women in Agua Prieta Sonora, Mexico. Going to and from work, dropping kids off at the babysitters, shopping , and crossing the border are a few factors that affect the mobility of women. Since 9/11 the time it takes to cross the border has increased greatly, especially on weekends and during heavy traffic times. for local people, who already have a lot to do and live off a strict budget, it must be a difficult adjustment and seems like it takes away from their personal life.
