“The change is happening in Stanwood, Monroe and other small cities in Snohomish County.

Gateways to the county’s farmland, these cities have become home to more Hispanic immigrants than ever before. It’s part of a nationwide trend tracing the fastest-growing Hispanic communities to the country’s most rural areas.

Hispanics are moving to rural areas faster than they once did, and are also settling down in states that border Canada, instead of Mexico, according to a report released Wednesday by the Carsey Institute, a New Hampshire-based research group.”*
