Class Project

The assignment that my group had to do was to choose a word that described the area that we lived in with one word and why we chose that word to describe our area.



My word to describe the area we live in is - Mexican.

I chose Mexican because a big percentage of the valley population wise is mexican or hispanic. it is hard to imagine the valley without thinking of the word mexican because the history of this area deals with Mexicans. Being a border area, most famlilies that live in the U.S. side have family in the Mexico side of the border. In my point of view, the only thing keeping the valley from being veiwed as Mexican is the fact that there is a border between Mexico and the valley.
