Thanks for bringing this to our attention and supporting the Haitian community. They are such nice, peaceful people who contribute so much to the city.
8.5%? Where does that figure come from.
One of the demographic sites that came up. Do you think it should be more? :)
Just from simple observation, it seems to me that there are more Haitians in Boynton Beach than in Lake Worth. I know there is a large Haitian membership at Sacred Heart, but very few Haitian children attend LW Library programs.
Yes, you are simple. Simple minded, ect. fake News!
Yup, I remember how peaceful Haitians are when the M6 Haitian gang massacred people in Lake Worth. Those gangs are still around.
When was that Lynn?
I would guess about 10 years ago. Google it.
They don't look so peaceful from what I see. A couple on New year's day were driving the wrong way with the male clinging to the hood of a car yelling at the female who was at the wheel. Cute.
Going on every day 7:28am don't be obtuse. We don't need their flags flying here either, clean up your own country and fly your flag THERE.
I'm sick of all the Haitians hookers on Dixie! Oh wait....
The simple observation seems to have been correct: Boynton Beach has a Haitian population of 10.4; Delray Beach 9.7, while Lake Worth has a mere 8.5%.
Those are the ones countable 12:49pm its hard to believe those figures. Nonsense.
