Description: Detroit's Mexicantown, Michigan, Images of America, Paperback Detroit's Mexicantown offers readers a glimpse into this rich and cultural community's beginnings.Mexican immigrants began to settle in Detroit at the beginning of the 20th century. They were attracted by the jobs available in the automobile industry and the rest of the rapidly expanding industrial base. Like other immigrant ethnic groups, Mexicans came to Detroit intent on providing a better life, and future, for their families. They opened businesses like specialty grocery and retail stores, barbershops, and restaurants.
