Mexican government launches Web site tracking hometowns of migrants in U.S.

MEXICO CITY - The Mexican government has launched a new Web site tracking the hometowns of millions of Mexicans residing in the U.S., the Foreign Relations Department said Saturday.

The site, which features maps of both countries, shows how Mexican migrants tend to settle in U.S. cities where residents from their home state or town have gone before them, the Foreign Secretary said in a news release.

The department said the information, gathered by Mexican consulates in the U.S., will help people to better understand Mexican migration.

According to the site, Omaha, Nebraska, has become the key destination for Mexicans hailing from the steamy southern state of Campeche, while Atlanta has drawn residents from the cactus-studded central state of Hidalgo.

San Francisco is home primarily to migrants from the Yucatan, while residents from the swampy Gulf coast state of Tabasco tend to move to Raleigh, North Carolina, according to the site.

Migrants usually follow relatives and friends, who often find them jobs even before they sneak across the U.S. border.

In many U.S. cities, Mexican migrant communities have formed clubs to collect money to send back to their hometowns to fund festivals, build schools or open medical clinics. Some migrants in the U.S. also have formed soccer teams representing their Mexican hometowns that play against other migrants from villages from their same Mexican state.

Great Neptune they are describing my town to a T. At least two Mexican towns have basically transplanted themselves to Waukegan. They have social clubs, send money back, soccer groups, etc... Then again maybe this map will tell ICE where to go. This video of a Tonatico in Waukegan may make you gringe -look for the odd salute at the end.
