Taken as raw numbers like that and plunked on the map, they don't mean much. I mean, maybe they're all state pens!

I don't think that represents anything significant in terms of Hispanic migration, that's what I'm saying. I would think such outliers would be worth noting differently.

If they are residents, family members of prisoners who moved to the area, 310 hispanics is a lot of hispanics for a town so small.

Instead of arguing about it, we should take a drive one weekend and check it out!

Imagine that: authentic fish tacos in Tionesta!
