Mexicali was founded at the turn of the 20th century, when the region's agricultural economy experienced a boom. The city rapidly expanded throughout the 20th century, owing to the proliferation of maquiladoras in the city, making the economy more interconnected with businesses from across the border. Today, Mexicali is a major manufacturing center and an emerging tourist destination.
