Hmmm. This 60min piece was from my county in FL. I think we’re in the top 3 for median income in the state. Unemployment in the county is at 9% and I read the other day that the state unemployment is at 10.1%, lowest in 28 months. I’m not doubting the piece, perhaps I’m just trying to put it in perspective myself.

That would be the Sanford area: off highway US-27, I live just 40 minutes south of you.

While they are not "living in forests"—you can drive deep into Florida's orange groves, and you will see large groups of "immigrants" living in buses—and large "kitchens" out in the open air.

Those Florida encampments are smaller, but analogous to Texas "Colonias".

When I saw how many had cellphones, I decided maybe I should get one for myself!

LOL! Maybe I'll splurge myself and finally dump my rotary cellphone and go with one of them fancy button ones.
