as long as you apply for the job while still living in the u.s. , and its not a government related job. You will need to make sure you have time to cross the border before getting to work. its a way longer commute.

Yes you can. I have known many people that do that. Some were U.S. citizens and some were Mexican citizens. I have known people that were living in the U.S. and working in Mexico. In both cases, you have to allow a lot of time to cross the border, especially if you drive. Sometimes it is better to leave your car in the parking lot at the U.S. side and walk over, then drive from there. My hometown is 5 miles from the border. Now I am retired living in the Armed Forces Retirement home in Washington, DC.

Yes. You'll save a lot of money too. Gas is cheaper and food is cheaper. Since he has family there, you won't be like a tourist in the sniper's scope. And when you get sick of the Mexicans and their backwards thinking, you can just go home for a couple days for a sanity check. Definitely give it a try.
