Mexico is an "emerging market" because although it has many industries including automotive, steel or aircraft plants established on its soil, as a whole Mexico is not fully industrialized: there are many products and services that are still made on a handcraft scale.

Also, Mexico is a country of contrasts. There are regions within Mexico that have a quality of life comparable to Western Europe, whereas there are other regions with education, life expectancy and economic advancement equivalent to that of south Saharan Africa.

For instance, San Pedro Garza Garcia in the state of Nuevo Leon has a quality of life such as that of Spain; Metlatonoc in the southern state of Guerrero has the same life quality of Malawi (a poor, hunger-striken African nation). In between you can find other cities such as Veracruz, Puebla or Mexico City.

Therefore, until Mexico attains certain "threshold of development" where all its people has a certain quality of life, it will continue to be considered a "developing country".
