Nebraska Hispanic Market Housing

Ahorre Tiempo y Dinero

In Nebraska , few Hispanic children go to day care because three or more generations often live in the same house; grandparents watch the kids while dads and sometimes moms work.

At the other end of life, few elderly Hispanics go to nursing homes for any length of time because the culture's strong family values stress that children should care for their aging parents.

The Latino lifestyle has implications for housing. Not only do multi-generations live together from birth to death in Hispanic culture; two or more siblings and their spouses and children might be under that same roof, too, along with the children's grandparents.

In other words, the blood ties of several Hispanic families members living in one house would make everyone in that house one family.

If every Hispanic family sought its own home, the problem would be magnified in areas of Nebrasks. In Lexington, Nebraska about 2,400 mostly Hispanic people work at a Tyson beef plant on the south side of town with 10,000 residents. Prior to the plant's opening in 1990, the town had about 6,000 residents.
