Spanish was brought to the United States by Spanish explorers and settlers in the early 16th century, with the establishment of Spanish colonies in present-day Florida, Texas, and California. It became more widespread with the influx of Spanish-speaking populations from Latin America in the 20th century.
"Colonia" in Spanish can mean neighborhood or colony, or it can refer to a residential area or development. It is often used to describe a specific area or district within a city or town.

Colonists were discouraged from settling in Spanish borderlands due to threats from indigenous peoples, lack of infrastructure and resources, strict control by Spanish authorities, and competition with established settlements. Additionally, the harsh environment and disease also deterred potential colonists.
