43. We deal with it every day here too
I teach in a school system that is bulging at the seams with kids of illegal immigrants. My grocery store, bank and post office now have Spanish speaking employees on duty at all times. Most restaurants and hotels here, plus many construction companies, are hiring lots and lots of illegal immigrants.

Don't think you are alone in dealing with this every day. Iowa has the fastest growing Hispanic population in the midwest.

By the year 2020, Hispanics will be the majority population in the USA. This immigration issue is not exclusive to the SW US. Not by a long shot.
