Did you mean to ask if their reputation is bad or worse? They are criminals how can they have a good rep? Invading scum.

There is no issue with immigrants in my part of the country. However there are big issues with illegals. They are two different groups.

In South Wales economic migrants are not that popular, because well paid jobs are few and far between round here (most jobs advertised pay only £10,000-£12,000) and there is a lot of unemployment, so they are seen as competition for our jobs, rather than "doing jobs we don't want".

I live in NYC and it's full of immigrants but they are alright...hard worker for sure. I don't have a problem with people trying to get a better life for themselves and their families.

Fact straight. Question about Immigrants. We all here are Immigrants or Immigrant descents at some degree.
I am pro Immigrant. God bless you all. There are bad apples and a bunch of good apples.

It depends who you ask. If you ask a sensible person, or perhaps an employer, he'll say yes. But if you ask somebody who is racist (like many on YA) they will always say no. Fortunately, nobody listens to these racists, as they're more likely to be sponging thieves who contribute nothing to the country.

They have an AWFUL rep in my part of the country. Well deserved imo. Illegals make up the largest percentage of inmates and commit the lion's share of crimes in my area.

About 60% in my city are mexicans....illigal or legal..realy don't care. Why? Because there the once doing the jobs no one wants

For those who say "they took my job" I say "no one is holding you back, the fields can always use another pair of hands" so don't make noice just to make noice

My city started as a small farm town...now we are one of the biggest providers of strawberry, lemons, oranges, ect in our county...witch means more money for our city,

Two new high schools in 3 years. A state university. A new community college. 100 more police hired last year. New homes. I can go on....all this because the cheap labor and our fields

If you need more examples just look at the big cities in california... san diego, l.a, sacramento, san fran, they all have cheap labor...

Depends who you ask.

A bit of both. I think people respect the legal migrants who are working and paying taxes or those genuinely seeking asylum (most of the time), but as for those immigrants that are here illegally or putting in bogus asylum claims so they can scrounge off the system, they are the ones that give decent, hard working, legal immigrants a bad name.

In my part of the country they have a hideous rep. They are turning my state into a trash bin. So many illegals it's sickening.

Mexicans are pretty much the majority in L.A., so they have a wonderful reputation. This is not true for those racist gringos. Here you will be frowned upon. Long live Mexico and sometimes the U.S.

Bad, and deservedly so ! Alot of them are living off state handouts and working in the building trade for " cash in hand", especially the east europeans, before I get a raft of " thumbs down" I have seen and reported this to the D.S.S, guess what, nothing is done !


Rebecca
We don't have hardly any. Unless we get a bunch of Canadians slicing cops with machetes. NO offense Canadians.

In Scotland we are all complaining that they are taking our jobs, although the Polish workers are hard working but there is a lot of racial violence from and against the Asian community as they want better rights than we have and they are all getting housed before the UK people who have waited years for housing.


trigga1uk
I live in the uk and no one has a problem with 1 aussie here or a few germans there. When the legions of polish invade your local towns - even the most liberal people are starting to get pretty pissed off,


Morecambe, not Dennis Wise
They work hard and their families are well behaved.
Perhaps Ollie lives closer to me than I think, but thanks for that answer...

Our state is total immigrants. The majority being German, Swedes, Norway and Russian. They have been here for 200 years. 100% came here legally. They are the regions reputation--good, bad and indifferent. We have some illegal aliens that are showing up. These people are the dreggs of society. Mostly they are mexicians. They show up to do crop work or with interstate construction crews. They live in houses that are rented for 2 but filled with 15 or 20. They put their kids on the street or in the local schools, hospitals, churches and pay nothing towards our infastructure. They prey on the young and steal what isn't fastened down. They leave in the dead of the night. The crime rates triple during Sugar Beet harvest. We have to put armed guards on the construction sites that don't use illegal aliens. I guess you could say their reputation is in the shi$$er!!! USMC 60-68

They pretty much just do the lawns in my neighborhood, but I won't hire them. Lots of my neighbors complain about them and then hire them for odd jobs.

Immigrants don't have a good or bad reputation, although there have been tensions between the different ethinc groups within the actual indigenous population.
