This paper documents the attitudes toward and use of English in Juarez, Mexico, the oldest and largest city along the Mexico-United States border. It refutes the finding of related work which has shown two distinct orientations --integrative and instrumental --toward English as a foreign or as a second language. It does, however, support various assumptions regarding the relationship between attitudes and use and the impact of the local milieu on language attitudes. Eighty-five Juarez residents served as subjects. This paper documents the attitudes toward and use of English in Juarez, Mexico, the oldest and largest city along the Mexico-United States border.
