Huntington Park, California

While California is often the entry point for those looking to experience the American Dream for themselves, living out this dream can be difficult - especially in Huntington Park. 97% of this city is made up of Latino residents, with many of them being illegal immigrants. Because of this, many of the locals can't legally work. This pushes them below the poverty line and has increased the crime rate over the years.
