[edit] Clean-up

As requested by a clean-up notification (which I've since removed), I have done some revisions, in a new section called "History," to make that section conform to standard English usage. (I think the original contributor of those portions might have been a Spanish-language editor, though his edits were otherwise very helpful.) I haven't yet sourced the new material, however. If someone would like to help, it would be much appreciated. Thank you. Berenise 10:52, 5 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Economic Info

What keeps the city going? Surely there must be some fishing, industry, retail businesses, tourism etc. Can anyone find the info for this? Vogensen 22:45, 11 July 2006 (UTC)

The top industries are beer, fishing, and the port (largest port between San Diego and South America), then tourism is 4th.

Beer is VERY prevalent there, there is a Pacifico beer Brewery in Mazatlán. Jewelry is also very big part of the culture (silver more than anything).

I visted Mazatlan about four years ago. Pacifico beer was a big export. However the industy there were most proud of is shrimp. They have the biggest and most bountiful shrimp market I've ever seen.

[edit] The Mayor is not Isaac Lopez Arregui

[edit] Neutrality Dispute?

Why is there a neutrality dispute box on the page? I can't find any disagreements / issues. I move to remove it from the site. 65.94.183.238 (talk) 20:14, 21 May 2008 (UTC)
