description This article uses the Population and Housing Census 2000 to analyze the link between the post-basic education of the urban youth population and two indicators of transborder links on Mexico's northern border: being born in the United States and having transmigrants at home. The multivariate statistical analysis shows that although being born in the United States is positively associated with attending and completing high school, living in households with transmigrants reduces the likelihood of continuing higher education. Despite the improved socio-economic status of transborder families, household members' transborder employment may be affecting young people's educational aspirations, since it proves that they can achieve higher relative incomes without investing in higher education.
