Market
The real estate market
The market is defined by affordable single-family housing in fraccionamientos (planned residential subdivisions), with established developments to the north and east of the city. Demand comes from industrial workers and state government employees, with prices lower than in Tijuana.
Nearshoring and the expansion of industrial parks have increased demand for worker housing and industrial warehouses. Valley agribusiness and border commerce support opportunities in storage facilities, retail space and mid-range housing.
Industrial parks expanding thanks to nearshoring, worker housing, Mexicali Valley agribusiness, and cross-border commerce with Calexico.
