Our home wasn't within the city limits, either, it was all 2 acre lots. The dozen or so illegals in the house across the street wouldn't use the 2 acres except to raise goats and fighting chickens and build shacks all over it. They stood in the street, blaring their music, 24/7 and hung laundry all over the front fence. The deterioration of that beautiful piece of property in 3 months was amazing. My daughter built a new home next to it (before the illegals moved in) They lost $100,000.00. It really destroyed the finances of our entire family. The young ones could speak English...they went to school. They told me how they hated being in the country....they prefer the city.

It's interesting --- the Mexican government destroyed the campesinos and the rancheros and their lifestyle so much that you almost couldn't find a good farmworker below age 35 any more from Mexico.
Here you see all kinds of jobless hispanic youths running in gangs --- but meanwhile who is picking the chilis and baling the hay? It's almost always these old guys --- you'll find more over 40 year olds doing the hard work but almost never someone under 30. Even the illegals will tell you that they grew up on a ranch or ejido and always worked -- but the younger generations are city born and raised and won't do hard work. They'll take illegal factory jobs or deal in drugs --- but you won't get them to bale and move hay.
