    Many Spanish speakers around here. They are always cursing something that sounds like "chinga------"  I don't think it is very nice.

    Tradesmen?  That covers a lot of ground.  I'd say 50/50.  All of the groundskeepers are Mexican or at least some version of Latino.   The Automotive services like car repair has a lot of white and Mexicans.  So, I don't think it is primarily either one.

  • Or at least some version of Latino. That's funny.

  • English. There's no Spanish to be had, around here. Well, there are some Mexican workers in the tree nurseries around, during the prime season.

    There are some hispanics here but not very many.  I've never heard Spanish being spoken around here.
