One of the reasons I see is immigrants moving into neighborhoods and refusing to asimiate.
Example: 2 doors down from me the home has had two different owners in the past 3 years, both Vietnamese.
They stick to themselves and have no desire to communicate with anyone on the street I know of.
I walk my dog past their house every morning and in the year or so they’ve been there I have barely gotten an acknowledgement out of either the man or woman.
The group that was in there before that were even worse, playing loud music until late in the night and didn’t make any effort to get to know anyone.
A story too long to tell here but I suspected illegal activity and possibly housing illegal aliens by the first group so I reported it to ICE. Inside of two months they sold the house and moved.
In the densely populated NorthEast city I have been overall blessed to live and minister in and out of for over 33 years, by the grace of God. then the problem is assimilation.
Most all Central Americans come here as people of faith (almost every one will take a gospel tract in their language), and thus many evangelical types have church meetings in their home, plus buildings. Catholic church has many attendees.
They love children, and their parents, many of whom they bring here to visit in the summer. And they work, thus plenty of parking during the day, vs. night. And their children like to play, and walk with parents to the store, etc. Thus they overall conform to conservative family and spiritual values, which I fit in with vs, with those raised in the typical NE culture.
They are also very amiable and social, despite their apartments being rather sparse. They smile interact with you on the street, though for me, not speaking Spanish limits that.
However, being from S. America, (and mostly Catholic) they are conditioned to socialism and they vote for the party that buys their vote thru outreach (which Republicans hardly do), and welfare type benefits.
And the longer they stay here then the more like the typical liberal NorthEast. They stop going to church, and live together with kids without getting married, and lose their children to the sedentary smartphone culture. Thus you hardly see anyone out even in the summer,as the stay inside AC apartments on the phone and video game and consoles, and usually show little desire to do physically much (bike ridingn etc,), thus being conditioned to dependence and socialism.
And increasingly Latino women become "educated" SJW's
Thus as regards family and spiritual values, their home country is better.
And which evidences that overall, they did not see or were led by God to come here, for if we are born again, we either are missionaries wherever we go, or are backslidden(I know both) or lost souls (as most Catholics are, esp. liberal Americans).
