Mexico looks both ways: it belongs to the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) with Canada and the United States, but also has trade agreements with Bolivia, Colombia, Venezuela, and most Central America.

Where are Canada and Mexico in relationship to the USA in north America?
Canada is directly north of the USA (e.g. above the US states of Washington, Idaho, Montana, North Dakota, Minnesota, Michigan (or rather, Lake Superior, which belongs to Michigan), Pennsylvania, New York, New Hampshire, Vermont, and Maine) and Mexico is directly south of the western half of the USA (e.g. below California, Arizona, New Mexico, and part of Texas). By the way, there are many maps online that show this--it would have been quicker, easier, and less annoying to do that. You're welcome.

Why Mexicans come to America?
Firstly because living standards are higher in America; if you do the same job in Mexico and in America, in America you are much more likely to be able to afford to eat well, clothe yourself, buy more goods, entertain yourself etc. America also has better public services and infrastructure eg a hospital is more likely to treat you if you are sick and you aren't likely to live with sewage in the streets. In addition, the same goods or services tend to be cheaper in Mexico than they are in America, so many Mexicans come to America to work and send some of their money back to their family in Mexico or save it for when they return to Mexico, where even a small amount of money by American standards makes a big difference. Also some parts of Mexico are rather violent due to the drug trade, so some Mexicans flee to America because they feel in danger in Mexico.
