Guest guest Posted March 10, 2005 Report Share Posted March 10, 2005 Everyone, I have been searching and I am wondering if anyone can help me with the following question I recently received " Does anyone out there know of a data source that has measured Linguistic Isolation for Farmworkers as defined by the Census Bureau? National, State(OR) or County (Lane) level would be great. Linguistic isolation: A household in which no person 14 years old and over speaks only English and no person 14 years old and over who speaks a language other than English speaks English " Very well " is classified as " linguistically isolated. " In other words, a household in which all members 14 years old and over speak a non-English language and also speak English less than " Very well " (have difficulty with English) is " linguistically isolated. " All the members of a linguistically isolated household are tabulated as linguistically isolated, including members under 14 years old who may speak only English. This is for the needs assessment for a 330g application. " Any information you all could provide would be great thanks.
