As the American economy sours, migrations return to their homelands to start fresh and hope for a better future

San Antonio, Texas (CaymanMama.com) — With the financial crisis worsening by the day, Americans are bracing for further failure. Migrants are also worried that while seeking a better future for their families and coming to America for a better life, it may be best to return to their homelands to begin again.According to a recent report by the Associated Press, thousands of legal and illegal Latin American immigrants are heading back home as the U.S. financial depression causes employment to dry up in the construction, landscaping and restaurant industries.As the ebb and flow of immigrants runs on a cyclical course due to the holidays, authorities are now saying that they have noticed a larger-than-average reverse-immigration trend this year.

The report states, “Mexico City’s municipal government predicts between 20,000 and 30,000 immigrants above the usual number will return from the U.S. in the next few months because they cannot find work. Mexican consulates in California and Chicago report that around 4,000 more Mexican immigrants than usual have already left for Mexico City because of the economic crisis.”Immigrants are now finding more pressure to make ends meet in daily life than they originally encountered prior to the crisis.

There has become too much pressure for rent, food, and transportation making it harder to live in America versus their homelands.
