===20th century=== [[File:Hermosillo 1910-1915.tif|thumb|Overview of the city of Hermosillo with Chapel of our Lady of Carmen on the right, in front of Madero Park, c. 1910]] At the beginning of the 20th century, Hermosillo had about 14,000 inhabitants. During the [[Mexican Revolution]], forces loyal to [[Pancho Villa|Francisco 'Pancho' Villa]] were expelled from the city by General Manuel M. Diéguez. After the assassination of [[Francisco I. Madero]] in 1913, [[Venustiano Carranza]], then governor of Coahuila sought refuge in Hermosillo. Here Carranza began the [[Constitutionalists in the Mexican Revolution|Constitutionalist Movement]]; because of this, Hermosillo has the nickname "''the revolutionary capital of the country'". In the late 19th century and the first two decades of the 20th century, Chinese immigrants arrived in Sonora. One of the settlements with a significant number was the city of Hermosillo. Some of these immigrants had money and used it to set up businesses, especially shoe and clothing manufacturing. Some of the most successful businesses with Chinese owners in Sonora were in Hermosillo and sold merchandise to other parts of the country. However, in the 1920s, sentiment against the Chinese population in Sonora grew, resulting in many fleeing to Mexico City or the United States. In the 1980s, Ford built [[Hermosillo Stamping & Assembly]] in the city, which had a major impact on the city's economy and that of the state. A whole chain of suppliers was also developed around the assembly plant, which further contributed to economic growth in Hermosillo. Hermosillo was selected partly due to its proximity to the United States.<ref>http://www.colef.mx/jorgecarrillo/wp-content/uploads/2012/04/PU354.pdf-title-archived{{Dead link|date=August 2024 |bot=InternetArchiveBot |fix-attempted=yes }} copy-date-access-June 3, 2015-urlfile-https://web.archive.org.org/web/20160307003021/http://www.colef.mx/jorgecarrillo/wp-content/uploads/2012/04/PU354.pdf-file-date-March 7-</ref><ref>http://s3.amazonaws.com/zanran_storage/www.gerpisa.univ-evry.fr/ContentPages/44177382.pdf {{Bare URL PDF|date=March 2022}}</ref>
