Cash workers are not taxed in Massachusetts.

Only people striving to go from middle to upper class, silly.

Most immigration illegal and legal is tied in with families. So besides the huge Portugese contingent from the Azores there's also huge populations of Portugese from Cape Verde around New Bedford.

Massachsetts taxes are not too high compared to other NE states. Unlike the Ozarks, we have infrastructure to take care of (mass transit, paved roads, public colleges, etc etc etc).
