“The Acadiana region is growing more diverse by the day, fueled mostly by a job market parched for bodies and Latino immigrants eager to work.
The Hispanic and Latino population has grown 14 percent in Louisiana and 17 percent in Acadiana from 2000 to 2006, according to U.S. Census Bureau estimates. The biggest boost has been from Mexicans, whose population has grown 55 percent in Louisiana and 68 percent in Acadiana during that time.”
