I found this in the Winter/Spring 1995 issue of Urban Institute's
Policy and Research Report. (Yes, it takes me a long time to read my
mail!)

"Although 64% of US Latinos are native born, the misperception
persists that most are immigrants. "

Another misperception, I would add, is that most or many immgrants
are in the US illegally. I don't have the actual figures here. Maybe
someone on this list does?
