Deep Question: House of the Scorpion

The book The House of the Scorpion by Nancy Farmer is set in the futuristic land of Opium which is said to be located in between Mexico and the United States. What do you think the significance of this location is on the message/theme Farmer is attempting to convey? Would the story or it's relevancy to current society change if it was set in a different location such as Europe or the Middle East?
