## Neza York/New York
Till the 2000s, maist migrants tae the Unitit States, especially tae places like New York, wur frae poor landwart auries. Housomeivver, syne the turn o the century, anither wave o immigrants is comin frae poor urban auries such as Ciudad Neza. These immigrants tend tae be younger an better eddicatit than their landwart coonterpairts, an tend tae keep separate frae thaim an aw. This is bringin intae existence a new Mexican subcultur cried "Neza York" distinguished bi dress, speech an the likeliheid o learnin Inglis. Businesses wi names like Tacos Neza an Neza Grocery hae appeared in New York Ceety.
