Donald Trump's wall plan draws mixed reactions on the border

(AP) — Donald Trump's ambitious plan to build a giant wall on the border hits close to home for people like Berenice Andrews.

The front door of her family's home is just feet away from a fence separating the U.S. and Mexico.

There are already about 650 miles of fencing, including the steel fence that divides the sister cities of Nogales in Arizona and Mexico and ranges from 18 feet to 26 feet tall.

The Associated Press interviewed people who live on the border to get their perspective on Trump's border wall plan:

For Chilton, illegal immigration and drug smuggling isn't just something he hears about on the news.

While Chilton has not decided who he will vote for in the presidential election, he certainly supports the idea of building a wall.

With her shop so close to the border, Drew-Wilkinson sees the Mexican people as neighbors and not enemies.

Immigrants and drug smugglers frequently sneak into the country on his property, cutting his barbed-wire fences and leaving behind garbage.

Ladd simply likes that Trump has been talking about illegal immigration since the beginning of his campaign.

Hector Orozco has a unique perspective on the border debate because of his occupation and past party affiliation.
