A Walk Through Mexicantown, Detroit

Originally posted in May 2017.

Who would’ve thought Detroit, MI would have a vibrant Mexican community? When you think of Mexican immigrants, most uninformed people (like myself) would think Texas, California or New Mexico. But there are vibrant Mexican communities all across the MidWest with Chicago shockingly being the number 2 city for Mexican immigrants. 

Through the company I work for, I participated in the Detroit Cinco De Mayo parade. I got so caught up in the moment and atmosphere that didn’t realize the photo opportunities I was walking by. These are just a few of the pictures I remembered to take.
