It is believed that Hispanics do use less personal space when greeting than other ethnic groups, but that is dependent on who they are greeting and how close they are to the person. For example, when greeting an employer or someone they do not know well, they aren't likely to use any less personal space than anyone else.

How many Hispanics live in Jacksonville?

- In 2008, Jacksonville (city limits) had approx. 51,000 Hispanics, BUT the region had nearly 90,000 Hispanics. - So keeping the growth pattern I PREDICT that there are currently about 95,000 (less than 10% of the area population) Hispanics in the area. - But by 2020 it would be fair to say that there would be about 200,000 Hispanics due to the great quality of life, jobs, and a great area! NOTE: Census estimates (2009) show that more than 100,000 Hispanics live in Clay, Duval, Putnam, Flagler, Nassau and St. Johns counties.

Personal space refers to?

Personal space is considered the area immediately surrounding an individual in which they feel safe. It varies from one person to another. When another person violates personal space it causes that person to feel insecure and uncomfortable. The more intimate the relationship, the less personal space will become an issue. If you touch, stand too close, or sit too close to another person you may be invading their personal space and that is considered both aggressive and inappropriate in most cultures.The law does not recognize a specific crime or civil action based on violation of personal space per se. However, the law does recognize various actions based on assault, sexual harassment and unwelcome touching.Personal space could be used to describe a space at work or in a shared dwelling that is set aside for the exclusive personal use of a particular individual.
