Hi. I'm the one who came up with the birth-rates of Mexicans and Mexican-Americans. I forget the actual book where I got those stats, it was a pretty credible, official-type book about birth rates and population statistics of the world. I sited the figures in my own book about life on the streets (which I'm not allowed to plug on this site according to the rules of the site). I still have the birth rate book somewhere packed up in storage, I'll see if I can find it. But why do you doubt those statistics? I've seen them sited elsewhere in many other places and I'll browse the web after this entry to see if I can find something more definitive. I've read numerous times that the Mexian-American birthrate is twice that of the rest of AMericans. As for the term "fleeing," a descriptive term like that is a matter of opinion, of course. But it seems apt, considering these are desparate people sneaking across dangerous stretches of desert.

Acebackwords-I doubt those stats because we have no reliable stats on ths sort of thing.Our estimate of the number of illegals being 11 million nationwide might very well in all reality be just California's share of them.Also I know far too many of them.The outrageous claim of 7/4 children is very stereotypical and would never apply in this day and age.

Hi Rickesteves. This is the only thing I've found so far on a quick trolling of the web. According to the California Latino Demographic Datebook for 1990, Latinos made up about 25% of the California population but made up about 50% of the births. Which would be in line with what I was saying that they're making babies at twice the rate of the rest of Americans. The statistic I sited earlier of 7 babies per Mexican couple was from 30 years ago, of which we are now seeing the progeny amongst our recent immigrants. I'm not sure what the Mexican birth rate is today, I know its now lower than 7-per, but I'm not sure exactly what. I know their birth rate is still way high.

Mexican birth-rate statistics
I think Rickesteves is right to take all these statistics with a certain ammount of skepticism, but I do think they tell a generally accurate story. Here's what I dug up so far: According to the Public Policy Insititute of California, during the years 1985 to 1991, the average birth-rate of Hispanic-American women fluxated from an average of 3.25 to 4.44 babies-per-woman (reaching their peak during a period of amnesty for illegals, not so un-coincidentally). This is in comparison to non-Hispanic American women averaging 1.8 to 2.2 babies-per woman during those years. Also: According to the Population Reference Bureau (and a Pat Buchanan book) Mexican women in Mexico in 1960 were averaging 6.1 babies-per-woman. So there you go.
