What group migrated north largely to New York City where they formed a unique immigration community?

Answer 1

The Puerto Rican community largely migrated north to New York City, particularly during the mid-20th century, as part of a larger wave of Puerto Rican migration driven by economic opportunities and the promise of better living conditions. This migration led to the establishment of a vibrant cultural enclave, particularly in neighborhoods like East Harlem and the South Bronx, where they maintained their cultural heritage while contributing to the city's diversity. Puerto Ricans have since played a significant role in shaping the cultural, social, and political landscape of New York City.
