Figure 5.15 Origins of migrants This map depicts the Mexican state of origin for the residents of Garfield, an ethnic neighborhood in Phoenix, Arizona, that is composed mostly of Mexican and Mexican American residents. Note that most of the residents trace their homeland to only a few northern Mexican states; immigrants from Mexico’s more southern states, such as Oaxaca and Veracruz, are relatively rare.
