She is only looking for Mexicans - the problem is there is not a large Mexican population in the area, so it is difficult to find a correct number.

From Her: "the correct term is "Salvadoran" not "El Salvadoran." I have a degree in Latin American studies so I know the difference."

This is the problem she is running into. It's a small community but a good number on how many there are would be very helpful. She is trying to establish a service based on the number of MEXICANS living illegally in DC.

Thanks for the info so far.

Dizzy, New Castle is hardly Southern Delaware. It's a 2hr commute to Salisbury, at best. The only part of New Castle worth living in is the Historic Old New Castle district which is not cheap (>225K for a 2 bed one bath home in decent shape.) Surrounding areas can be very shady and that's what brings the mean house price that low.

True Southern (coastal) DE is a very seasonal area, very crowded during the summers and much less so in the winter. Lewis is a nice... [more]

Hong Kong tailors can come to you. You go there and get measured for a true bespoke suit and receive it in the mail when it is ready.

It seems to me that at the very least you would want to police to come out and generate a report to cover your ass. Stupid scammer

for example, if Holiday inn, K Mart, Pepsi, etc were actually owned my a foreign company. Companies that are thought to be US owned company, but aren't.

Or maybe the issue is with the abbreviation. By US I mean United States.

Well, are there any lists of any foreign owned companies that have a branch or subsidiary in the u.s? Maybe that will be a easier question to get an answer for. I realize that this could be a huge list, but there has to be something. The problem is I think they register by state not nationally.
