dc.descriptionThis book analyzes the poverty of Mexican Americans and Mexican immigrants in five states in the Southwest Region (Arizona, California, Colorado, New Mexico, and Texas). Though the Census designates the West South Central as Arkansas, Louisiana, Oklahoma, and Texas, I use a slightly different designation in light of the special considerations to be given to Mexican immigrant populations (Poston et al., 1976; Markides and Coreil 1986). Each of the above mentioned states boasts poverty rates well above the national average of 13.3% (with the exception of California at a rate of 13.1%) (2006). These states are also important to focus on given that they have large Hispanic populations, groups truly impacted by poverty-
