It is interesting. New York + environs and Chicago look virtually Latino-free (which is weird) while there are these surprising pockets up in Washington state that I've never heard of.

The fact is that Latinos are now present in the US in huge numbers. I was in a store in a small, rural town in Kentucky last year and, sure enough, the people beside me started speaking Spanish.

Demographic changes sneak up on you. I read a couple of years ago that if current trends hold, French will eventually be replaced as Canada's second language by ... Cantonese.

Yes in Yakima WA the town has more mexicans than americans. It is because of the apple growing community.
