Quite a contrast from many Mexicans and Central Americans who were campesinos and border town dwellers before moving here. Hence the disparity in socioeconomic levels.
A good example of this would be comparing 1959 Cuban Americans with the Marielitos of the early 80's. Quite a big difference.
Your comment might as well have asked us to compare apples with oranges.

WRONG!
If you do a study of the Hispanics in Miami, you would see that NOW ( 2000's ) Cubans are not the majority of hispanics.. its a nice blend of colombians, argentinians, CENTRAL AMERICANS, etc..
So again.. sorry but I disagree... Yes Cubans were the first big group but now they are not the majority.
