“This working-class city of 70,000 is not what comes to mind when one thinks of Westchester prosperity, but for Brazilians, and for those from Poí§os de Caldas in particular, it has become a promised land.
Today, one in 10 people in Mount Vernon is from Brazil, and two-thirds of those Brazilians are from Poí§os de Caldas, according to estimates by the city and the Brazilian Consulate in New York.
They have transformed this city. Brazilian stores line commercial strips. The public schools have brought in teachers and counselors who speak Portuguese. The language can be heard on the streets throughout town.”
