Latino Groups Matrix

This assignment requires you to select four different Latino groups residing in the U.S. Remember, Latinos are not a homogeneous group. In order to have a clearer understanding of this fact, you will create a matrix with the four different Latino groups on one axis and four different attributes on the other axis. Attributes must include educational attainment, the rest are up to you to decide (citizenship, unemployment rate, poverty level, etc.). You must give a full description of each attribute along with any numbers or statistics. You should submit this in table format. The best place to find this information is Pew Hispanic Center (www.pewhispanic.org). Check their data and resources tab as well as their demography and immigration research. Along with your table you must also submit a brief impression of your findings (one paragraph).
