Dominican Immigrants in Pennsylvania, By Way of New York
by Marianne McCune

They're not volunteers from the city, there to twist arms; they're recent transplants from the Dominican Republic to New York to Reading, Pennsylvania - two hours inland. WNYC's Marianne McCune visited Reading to talk to some of the thousands of Dominican immigrants who've decided to give up Nueva York for something smaller, slower paced, and less expensive.
