Citizens of Mexico
Mexicanos is the Spanish word for Mexicans—people from Mexico or of Mexican descent.
In English contexts, it often carries cultural pride or emphasizes Latino identity: Los Mexicanos brought their traditions to the neighborhood.
The term appears in cultural expressions, political discourse, and community identification, particularly in regions with large Mexican-American populations.
