39. Geography Chapter 5 Assignment What changes over time do you observe in WHERE Hispanic immigrants live in the US? You should be able to answer this question at multiple scales: US Regions (like New England, the Mid West or the South) States and Metropolitan regions (like New York City, Maimi, or Los Angeles) In other words, where do Hispanic immigrants live, and where are their numbers increasing most rapidly? Why do you think that these changes are happening differently in different parts of the country? (in other words, What factors might account for these geographical distributions?) ASSIGNMENT: 250-300 words, typed (approx 1-page) DUE: Monday, November 25, 2013
