Abstract:

Over the past twenty years the state's Hispanic population has grown rapidly; between 1990 and 1997, the population doubled to almost 150,000. The population is relatively young. Hispanics are coming to North Carolina from other states and other countries. They usually hold low- paying jobs. Many long-term residents oppose Hispanics moving into the state.
