Visiting Monterrey Mexico can feel more like being in a city somewhere in Texas. Locals who have been to the US will tell you that Monterrey has a look and feel more like an American city than a Mexican city.
Monterrey is Nuevo Leon's state capital and the prosperity of the city translates to being one of the wealthier tax bases which support the Mexican economy. The best example of this is the beer industry in Monterrey which accounts for 80% of all beer made in Mexico. When all is said and done, the businesses based in Monterrey have made the county of San Pedro Garza Garcia the wealthiest county in all of Latin America.
