My question is, "Where does Reading, Pennsylvania get any Mexican heritage from?"

The Hispanics in Reading are mostly from Puerto Rico via New York City (It's a $30 bus ticket.) I had the same question.

Reading has had a sizeable PUERTO RICAN population since the 1950s. The Mexicans only started arriving about 10 years ago.
