RE: July 2008 Day Laborer Sites


In Austin, Texas they have tried to build and maintain specified day labor sites. The city sites get manned, but there are always people hanging around other areas looking for jobs too.

In San Antonio, there is no city sites and people congregate in certain areas that have become known for day labor to gather.

I have not seen a difference in the crime rates or neighborhoods in either situation.
