Tijuana (/tiːˈwɑːnə/ tee-WHAH-nə; Spanish: [tiˈxwana]) is the largest city in Baja California and on the Baja California Peninsula and center of the Tijuana metropolitan area, part of the international San Diego–Tijuana metropolitan area. As an industrial and financial center of Mexico, Tijuana exerts a strong influence on economics, education, culture, art, and politics. As the city has become a leading center in the country, so has the surrounding metropolitan area, a major industrial and paramount metropolis in northwestern Mexico. Currently one of the fastest growing metropolitan areas in Mexico, Tijuana maintains global city status. As of 2015, the city of Tijuana had a population of 1,696,923.
On the Gold Coast of Baja California, Tijuana is the municipal seat, cultural, and commercial center of Tijuana Municipality, covering 70% of the municipality but with over 80% of its population. A dominant manufacturing center of the North American continent, the city maintains facilities of numerous multinational conglomerate companies. The 2000s (decade) saw Tijuana become the medical device manufacturing capital of North America. Also a growing cultural center, Tijuana has been recognized as a most important new cultural mecca. The city is the most visited border city in the globe; sharing an approximate 24-kilometre-long border (15 mi) with its sister city San Diego, over fifty million people annually cross the border between these two cities. This metropolitan crossing makes the San Ysidro Port of Entry the busiest land-border crossing in the world. It is estimated that the two border crossing stations between the cities proper of San Diego and Tijuana account for 300,000 daily border crossings alone.
The Tijuana River (Spanish: Río Tijuana) is an intermittent river, 120 mi (195 km) long, near the Pacific coast of northern Baja California state in northwestern Mexico and Southern California in the western United States.
The Tijuana River drains an arid area along the U.S.—Mexico border, flowing through Mexico for most its course then crossing the border into Southern California for its lower 5 mi (8 km) to empty into the ocean in an estuary on the southern edge of San Diego.
The Tijuana River has two main tributaries. One the Arroyo de Alamar or Rio Alamar, runs in its upper reaches in the United States as Cottonwood Creek. It runs from its source in the Laguna Mountains southwestward where it is impounded in by two dams, Barrett and Morena, to supply water to the city of San Diego. Cottonwood Creek is joined by the Tecate Creek before it enters Mexico where it is known as the Arroyo de Alamar from the point where it enters Mexico to its confluence with the larger tributary, the Arroyo de las Palmas, that forms the headwaters of the Tijuana River within the city.
Tijuana Municipality is a municipality in the Mexican state of Baja California. Its municipal seat is located in the city of Tijuana. According to the 2010 census, the municipality had a population of 1,559,683 inhabitants, of whom 1,300,983, or 83.4%, lived in the city of Tijuana. The municipality maintained its position as 3rd most populated nationally as of 2015 census, only behind Ecatepec de Morelos and Itzapalapa (DF). Carlos Bustamante Anchondo of the PRI is the current municipal president. Most notably, residents from Tijuana city, which barely budged in population, moved to the municipality in the 5 years preceding the 2010 Census, indeed the non-city portion has gained over 140,000 residents. Much of this historic movement could be explained by the drug violence, as residents seek isolated suburban communities outside city limits to escape it. The municipality comprises the largest part of the Tijuana metropolitan area.
Tijuana is bordered to the south by the municipalities of Rosarito Beach and Ensenada; to the east, by the municipality of Tecate; to the west, by the Pacific Ocean; and to the north, by the international border with the United States, specifically the County of San Diego, California. The area of the municipality of Tijuana is 879.2 km² (339.46 sq mi); the municipality includes part of the Coronado Islands, located off the coast of the municipality in the Pacific Ocean.

Mexico's Deadliest City | Tijuana: 7 Murders a Day | Free Documentary No-Go Zones - Khayelitsha, South Africa: https://youtu.be/3lLoC3C_UdI The city of Tijuana saw over 2,500 homicides in 2018, marking it as one of the most violent years in the city's history. This staggering number of deaths highlights the severe impact of narco-trafficking, drug addiction, cartel wars, and poverty on the community. Through an exploration of these complex factors, the intricate web of corruption and desperation that fuels the violence is uncovered. Interviews with local residents, law enforcement, and experts reveal the human cost of the drug trade and the socio-economic conditions that perpetuate the cycle of death and destruction. This in-depth analysis sheds light on the profound challenges facing Ti...
This where the US-Mexico border ends in the Pacific Ocean. It is the most northwestern point in Mexico. Just across this metal wall is the United States of America. I spoke with vendors in the area who told me that previously people crossed this border practically every day and even more crossed while the wall was down and under construction. They are likely looking to be apprehended and processed by CBP with the opportunity to stay in the United States while waiting for an immigration hearing. It will be interesting to see what happens with the next administration and whether people continue to cross here in Playas de Tijuana. #USborder #border #mexico #tijuana #sandiego

South Bay communities are dealing with the nasty aftermath of this week's storm after massive amounts of sewage and trash flooded the Tijuana River Valley at unprecedented levels. The storm sent more than 14.5 billion gallons of untreated raw sewage into California from Mexico, levels officials say have never been seen before. “It is massive, it’s unlike anything we’ve ever seen. It’s a sea of trash," said Imperial Beach Mayor Paloma Aguirre. Acres of plastic bottles, containers, tires, and sewage are currently sitting in the Tijuana River Valley. All of it will eventually end up in our ocean, leaving those who live near by feeling the impact.

The U.S.-Mexico-Canada Agreement trade deal includes $300 million in funding to address cross-border pollution in the Tijuana River Valley, San Diego`s congressional delegation announced Wednesday.
Wednesday, the EPA and county leaders announced plans for projects to address sewage flows from the Tijuana River Valley into the South Bay.
The Tijuana River was named to American Rivers 2024 'Top 10 Most Endangered Rivers' list, announced the Surfrider Foundation and Un Mar De Colores Tuesday morning. The announcement was made at a news conference at the Tijuana Estuary Visitor Center Amphitheater. "We're hoping this will be a turning point to help elevate this story at the national level," said Sarah Davidson of the Surfrider Foundation. She said though people in the San Diego region are aware of the problem of cross border sewage and pollution, people across the country aren't as familiar with the issue.

Despite the beach being back open in Imperial Beach, people can't go in the water yet because of the ongoing issue of sewage flowing from Mexico.
This video was originally published on December 18, 2010. Flood-control work across San Diego is stuck in the mud after the city was ordered to stop by a judge for failing to do the proper environmental review.
Cross-border sewage is a well-known crisis in the San Diego/Tijuana border region. But the problem is more complex than many realize. KPBS Border Reporter Gustavo Solis examined the toxic reality facing residents.
Andrew Wheeler, the head of the EPA, visited San Diego on Wednesday, Sept. 2 to talk about changes to clean up the Tijuana River.
Visit the Tijuana Estuary and, whether you know it or not, you're experiencing what it may have been like to stand on the beach in Southern California hundreds of years ago. This spot, where the Tijuana River meets the Pacific Ocean, is the largest and best example of the natural landscape that once was between Santa Barbara and some two hundred miles south of the border to San Quintín. Human development for cities meant paving over hundreds of miles of coast was wetlands. And such an abundance of fresh water made the region a major stopover for the migrating birds using the Pacific Flyover, as well home to native species. As seen in this video, its especially critical to the native light-footed Ridgway's rail, a bird species once abundant in SoCal's wetlands, but almost went extinct over...
