Interview in Jackson Heights

Everyone I asked seemed suspicious of this and wanted to look at the questions. After being turned away several times, I finally found this gem of an individual to take a few minutes to answer my questions.

1.) Do you live in Jackson Heights?

Yes.

2.) For how long?

About a year. A little less than a year.

3.) What area of J.H. do you live in?

I live on 103rd St. It's ok.

4.) What attracts you to J.H.?

It's always busy here, I like that. I lived in a boring place before. There's more here.

5.) Were you born in NYC?

No.

6.) How long ago did you move here and from where?

I came here when I was young, from Mexico.

7.) Which cultural group do you relate to?

Spanish.

8.) Do you feel any specific cultural group is more dominant here in J.H.?

No, it seems basically even I think. None more than the other.

I think everyone gets along.

10.) What cultural changes have you noticed/ experienced while living in J.H.?

Not much, I don't think so.

11.) Have you experienced any cultural difficulty or conflict with another culture here?

None that I can think of. I'd say none.

12.) What have you noticed of the fluctuation of cultural groups here?

Seems level.
