Los Angeles
is the single most important urban destination of all Mexican-born migrants.
It is followed by San Antonio, the south Texas Rio Grande Valley, Houston,
Dallas-Fort Worth, El Paso, Fresno and Phoenix. The great concentration of
Mexican Americans is in California, not that many in Arizona or Texas.
Traditionally, migrants originated from rural areas (places
with population less than 20,000). By 1992, 59 % of the Mexican-born who had
lived in the US reported coming from rural areas. Nevertheless, 25-31 % of
migrants born in rural areas had changed their homes to urban areas. Amazing
but the poorest Mexicans are the least migratory, while latino soldiers
without a cause migrate north over these "indigenous" lands then northwest.
