Laredo, Texas, and Detroit, Michigan, are U.S. border towns heavily reliant on trade with Mexico and Canada, respectively. Both cities face an uncertain economic future due to President-elect Donald Trump's plan to impose significant tariffs on imports that could disrupt their booming trade dynamics. Laredo has emerged as a major trade hub, surpassing other U.S. ports in trade value, while Detroit's automotive industry is at risk of being hit hard by these tariffs as electric vehicle production expands. Local businesses are gearing up for potential economic impacts, highlighting the deep interconnection of their economies with neighboring countries.
