SANTA CRUZ COUNTY , Ariz. — Jim Chilton and his wife Sue have owned a ranch that shares a boundary with the U.S.- Mexico border since 1987, and are seeing a spike in their expenses.
"The rebar cost me $2,000," Chilton said of a metal pipe he added to the barrier on his property to limit access for cows and people from crossing. "Easily $60,000 is the cost that I bear, that I wouldn't have to bear if the ranch was 100 miles north of here," Chilton said. "The main cost is the cost of sending two people out to do a job rather than one," Chilton said. “With the cartel being so active and the cowboys themselves being concerned, we send two people to do what one person was going to be able to do.”
