Yes a lot of Iranians here in small stores and restaurants while their population numbers have only recently started to increase (last 5 years),,, we have stretches of main drags now with a lot of signage sporting Dari and Farsi.. Also a lot of Hakka Chinese restaurants popping up in the last few years with Halal meat and porkless menus.. For a guy with early Chinese wave ancestry.. a Chinese restaurant with no pork on the menu is strange :O) but the offerings are interesting with a mix of either Caribbean or South Asian foods... Hard to find a more cosmopolitan place than Toronto .. even Montreal although they seem to attract more middle easterners.. They lost the Chinese numbers with the French laws.. and Toronto becoming much more open than it was prior to the 70s...

Over the past two years, Brazilians, Argentines, Venezuelans and Mexicans have helped revive the real estate market in south Florida, one of the hardest hit by the mortgage crisis that punished much of the U.S. in 2008.

“From a real estate point of view, south Florida depends on the Latin American market,” Edgardo Defortuna, one of the founders of Miami-based Fortune International Realty, told The Associated Press late last year.

Walter Molano of the PCP Securities investment bank said that for many Latin Americans, property in Miami costs less than in their home countries.

“Miami is less expensive than many capitals especially Sao Paulo and Rio de Janeiro and in some cases Bogota, Buenos Aires and Santiago,” Molano said last year.
