Up until 5th grade, I lived in a mostly Hispanic neighborhood. At the end of my 5th grade year we bought a house on the opposite, nicer side of town. Most of the houses on my street when we moved here 9 years ago were Anglo households, except for mine (we are Hispanic) and my next door neighbor is a Hispanic woman, but is married to an Anglo. The house is on a cul-de-sac so we all know each other pretty well.
Well, when I moved back home in May from school, my 8 yr old brother would always have the kids from the neighborhood inside playing. Well, I noticed that there was a diverse group of kids in this neighborhood now, nothing like when I was younger. There is an Indian family, African American family, a Mexican family, a Jamaican family, many Anglo families, and us (a Hispanic family).
As for my sorority, about 80% of my sorority is Hispanic, with 20% being Anglo. I go to a small, private, Catholic university in San Antonio with the majority of the student population being Hispanic.
