Английская Википедия:Hispanic and Latino Americans in San Francisco
Шаблон:Ethnic San Francisco sidebar Hispanic and Latino Americans in San Francisco form 15.1% of the population. The city's population includes 121,744 Hispanics or Latinos of any race. The principal Hispanic groups in the city were those of Mexican (7.4%), Salvadoran (2.0%), Nicaraguan (0.9%), Guatemalan (0.8%), and Puerto Rican (0.5%) ancestry. The Hispanic population is most heavily concentrated in the Mission District, Tenderloin District, and Excelsior District.
Mission District
Ranchos owned by Spanish-Mexican families such as the Valenciano, Guerrero, Dolores, Bernal, Noé and De Haro continued in the area, separated from the town of Yerba Buena, later renamed San Francisco (centered around Portsmouth Square) by a two-mile wooden plank road (later paved and renamed Mission Street).
The lands around the nearly abandoned mission church became a focal point of raffish attractions[1] including bull and bear fighting, horse racing, baseball and dueling. A famous beer parlor resort known as The Willows was located along Mission Creek just south of 18th Street between Mission Street and San Carlos Street.[2] From 1865 to 1891, a large conservatory and zoo known as Woodward's Gardens covered two city blocks bounded by Mission Street, Valencia Street, 13th Street, and 15th Street.[3] In the decades after the Gold Rush, the town of San Francisco quickly expanded, and the Mission lands were developed and subdivided into housing plots for working-class immigrants, largely German, Irish, and Italian,[1] and also for industrial uses.
The Mission District began seeing waves of Mexican immigrants from the 1940s to 1960s. There are also sizable populations of Central Americans such as Hondurans and Nicaraguans in this neighborhood, as well as with some Hispanic population around this era and later decades taking residence in the Excelsior District. The areas of Sunnydale, Visitacion Valley, and pockets of Sunset District, Richmond District, SoMa, and Eureka Valley have sizeable Latino communities.
To a lesser extent, there are some South American residents in San Francisco, with a higher proportion of them living in the Mission District and Downtown areas. The Peruvian population also is plentiful in San Mateo County, especially in the city San Mateo.
There are some Puerto Ricans in the Bay Area, albeit in way lower numbers than the East Coast and Florida. Larger populations of Puerto Ricans are reported in Vallejo, Suisun City, Newark, and Mission District.
