Immigrants reshape Hillsboro – Oregon
Tagged: family, Oregon, teacherPosted on: January 14th, 2007“Laurence Hughes and her husband, Steve, are one of the last remaining Anglo families along Southeast Oak Street where they settled 25 years ago. For roughly 10 square blocks, Latinos have moved in. Taco trucks line the streets and Spanish banda music flows from backyard family celebrations.
“You see a lot of families and kids,” says Laurence Hughes, a French and Spanish high school teacher who likes dropping into the Mexican bakery down the street for sweet bread. “They live their lives out a lot in the front yard. It makes it lively, makes it human.”"
