This book provides a comprehensive portrait of the experience of
poverty among Mexican Americans and Mexican immigrants in the US.
Given that these two groups experience some of the highest rates of
poverty of any ethnicity and that it persists even while a majority
work and reside in dual parent households, it becomes imperative
that we explore a multitude of related factors. This book offers a
systematic empirical analysis of these groups in relation to other
ethnic groups, explores the individual and contextual factors
associated with the determination of poverty via the use of
logistic and multi-level models, details the historical context
associated with Mexican immigrants, and discusses the major
policies that have impacted them. It discusses the newest
destinations of Mexican immigrants and also provides a discussion
of undocumented migrants. Further, it details the current measure
of poverty in the United States and offers a number of alternatives
for modeling and measuring it.
