San Luis Potosi is a state of Mexico, situated in the center of the country. The state of San Luis Potosi has fast-flowing rivers, mountain areas covered with lush vegetation and arid zones with abundant brushwood. The elevation is just over 6,000 ft. Because of the altitude, San Luis Potosi enjoys year-round, warm and generally dry weather- spring-like all year round. Rain is seldom a feature here; April thru November is the 'rainy season', but as with most monsoon areas, rains tend to be fierce and brief in the late afternoon, leaving the evenings dry and cooled off.
San Luis Potosi was founded in the colonial era and is an old silver mining town. The soil is fertile and in favorable seasons large crops of wheat, maize, beans and cotton are grown on the uplands. In the low tropical valleys, sugar, coffee, tobacco, peppers and fruit are staple products. Stockraising is an important industry and hides, tallow and wool are exported. Fine cabinet and construction woods are also exported to a limited extent.
