Peruvian Mexicans are Mexican citizens of Peruvian ancestry. Peruvian immigration to Mexico was carried out since the Spanish colonial period in the Mexican territory. In the 1970s, many Peruvian intellectuals came to Mexico for political asylum, in a similar way of how other Latin Americans did, such as Chileans, Argentines and Uruguayan. Today, Peruvian merchants, musicians, students and academics stand out who have settled indefinitely south of the capital. Most Peruvians who travel temporarily to Mexico do so for business and tourism. According to the 2020 census, there are 8,670 Peruvian citizens residing in the country.[2]
