Jalisco (/xəˈliːskoʊ/, also /xɑː-, xəˈlɪskoʊ/;[8][9] Spanish: [xaˈlisko] ), officially the Free and Sovereign State of Jalisco (Spanish: Estado Libre y Soberano de Jalisco [esˈtaðo ˈliβɾej soβeˈɾano ðe xaˈlisko]), is one of the 31 states which, along with Mexico City, comprise the 32 Federal Entities of Mexico. It is located in western Mexico and is bordered by six states, Nayarit, Zacatecas, Aguascalientes, Guanajuato, Michoacán, and Colima. Jalisco is divided into 125 municipalities, and its capital and largest city is Guadalajara.
Jalisco is one of the most economically and culturally important states in Mexico, owing to its natural resources as well as its long history and culture.[10] Many of the characteristic traits of Mexican culture are originally from Jalisco, such as mariachi, tequila, ranchera, birria, and jaripeo—hence the state's motto: Jalisco es México ('Jalisco is Mexico'). Economically, it is ranked third among the Mexican states, with industries centered in the Guadalajara metropolitan area, the third largest metropolitan area in Mexico. The state is home to two significant indigenous populations, the Huichols and the Nahuas. There is also a significant foreign population, mostly from the United States and Canada, living in the Lake Chapala and Puerto Vallarta areas.[11][12][13]
