General Information about Mexico

Mexico is a town in Oxford County, Maine, United States. The population was 2,959 at the 2000 census. It was incorporated as a town in 1818.
Mexico is located on several hills overlooking the Androscoggin River. Across the river is the neighboring town of Rumford, which has a large paper mill. The Swift River is also important to the town and empties into the Androscoggin River at Mexico's southwest corner and its historic business center. While the large Androscoggin River forms Mexico's southern boundary with Rumford, the smaller Swift River more or less follows its western boundary with that town. Due to Mexico's business center being located here on land formed by the northeast corner of the right-angle junction of the two rivers, and prior to the development of Rumford Falls on the Androscoggin River, and the subsequent boom in manufacturing mills and residential population which took place around that power source near the end of the 19th century, Mexico was primarily a farming community and locally known as Mexico Corner. These low lying banks along the Swift and Androscoggin Rivers in Mexico have been flooded many times. In the 20th century, major floods occurred in 1936, 1953, and 1987.
