The impact of immigrants is largely confined to 6 states. CA,TX,FLA,IL(and here the vast majority of them are in Cook County) NY and AZ. Yes, southren states have had a big increase in the number of Latinos, but lets put things in perspective, Santa Ana CA has more Latinos than the entire state of GA. Yes, they have greatly impacted housing, but guess what, without sustained job growth, then there wont be as many people able to own homes, even with Fannie Maes wreckless enableing of questionable home loans.
