"COLONIAS" are "colonies"... Unincorporated communities that are along the U.S./Mexico border where problems such as inadequate housing, lack of sewage or city water, or even electricity are the norm. High counts of disease and health problems such as cholera and hepatitis abound. Income levels are typically at poverty level, and households are usually 90%+ Hispanic and/or Spanish speaking.
