This article analyzes the return migration in the State of Mexico, from the personal and household perspectives. Using the Survey on Migration of Mexiquenses to the United States (EMMEU, 2009), and a series of in-depth interviews, it was established that return migrants have a new socioeconomic and family mentality that manifests itself in their daily practices, as increased emphasis on their children’s education and health, the capitalization of small businesses, and changes in their jobs to move from rural to urban tertiary activities. However, it is also clear that the efforts of the returnees and their families to build best ways of life are limited by the available assets. In this sense, it is proposed to enhance the use of these social and productive skills through public programs, designed according to the needs of returnees in their communities.

Palabras clave : Return Migration; State of Mexico; migrant skills; public support.
