Discovering Monterrey
Bienvenidos! Welcome!
Whether you are a veteran or a novice, relocation can be both an exciting and challenging
experience. This Dwellworks resource guide is intended to provide important information to
consider as you relocate to Monterrey. Your assigned Destination Services Consultant will assist
you as you transition into your new community. Additionally, your consultant will expand on the
topics covered in this guide according to the guidelines of your authorized program.
The Spanish colonists first founded the city. However, it became of great importance after the
Mexican Independence due to its balanced ties and convenient location for international trade and
relations.
Monterrey has the highest GDP per capita of any city in México. It is home to hundreds of
transnational companies. Therefore, the city plays an important role in the steel, cement, glass,
and brewery sectors. Due to its proximity with the United States, it is also a major player in the
auto-parts industry.
On behalf of the Dwellworks team, we welcome you to Monterrey and hope you will find this
information helpful.
