Is Mexico a melting pot

Answer 1

Yes. It has several regions with very distinctive cultures. For example, the northern states close to the Mexico-US border have more affinity to the southwestern culture of the United States, as the cowboy lifestyle was first invented in Mexico. On the other hand, the southern states close to Guatemala and Belize have a culture more akin to Central America. An so on, each of the 31 states and its federal district have their own culture, traditions, gastronomy and even language pronunciation.

Answer 2

Yes, but is much more advanced in such regard than the United States. For example, unlike Americans who have more or less well-defined Demographics (White, Asian, African-American and "Hispanic"), Mexico has 80% of its population considered as mestizo, or a blend of White, Native-American and Black ethnicities in such way that most of them cannot be easily classified as part of a definite ethnic group.
