Yes they are the biggest recipients of unaccompanied minors in the DC area and one of the biggest in the nation only after some counties in Texas, Miami, LA, etc. PG is the highest, followed by Fairfax, then Moco.

They were not allowed to do their job properly under Obama. FYI there are over 3200 illegals officially in MOCO where the feds caught them crossing and released them to relatives or guardians. from my PP "Nor did St Obama arrange federal funding to support them. I totaled numbers from the ORR site and there were huge numbers of unaccompanied undoc minors since Oct 2013 landing in PG 4144 and Montco 3286.
Fairfax got 3925 and Arlington 526. Based on state funding our property taxes pay for them NOT the federal govt. These are only the people nabbed by immigration on the unaccompanied minors lists so I assume there are more. "
Note these are only illegals on file with HHS and ORR.
Politicians and extreme liberals don't care. No one cares and if they do it gets you called racist.
Obama deported more illegals than any other president.
He created a trade policy with Mexico that boosted their economy and more Mexicans moved home under his administration than come to the U.S. Immigration from Mexico is a net 0.
He gave more leeway to local police to work with ICE to deport violent criminals.
BULL - unlike you, I'm a parent of public school students here in the DMV and very involved with the schools. The illegal population has skyrocked in our schools. I think you are quoting the usual Obama fake news. I see it here on the ground. I talk to the teachers and administrators. I've seen the enrichment programs being cut back to make way for vast influx of ESL students. I've heard from teachers and parents alike about how high-achieving kids are being left behind as they "teach to the middle" and that "middle" has dropped significantly. I've seen the schools being built at a rapid fire pace each year to the tune of $50M plus because we keep growing and it ain't all due to development - the vast majority is from the ESL population - I've heard it directly from people who crunch the numbers.

If they don't fix this or the President start deporting illegal students that steal tax money...the county is in for a very sudden collapse in livability. Its up to the public if they are ready to be normal or allow chaos and watch home values plummet.
I'm good with all of the above. If housing plummets it's because it's been artificially inflated. Sorry if you paid way too much for your DC or Arlington home.
What a totally dumb statement. Housing can also plummet because the value has been damaged. hence another thread on the Ward 3 homeless shelter. I don't live in MoCo but I am sympathetic to people whose living arrangements are being upended by politicians.
The value of my parents' house - a five-bedroom, four-bathroom colonial - was part of an upper-middle class neighborhood when I grew up there, with many neighbors belonging to the nearby country club. It now is worth in the low 300s, primarily because of the high percentage of illegal immigrants' children in the nearby high school - 80% of whom are on free breakfasts/lunches, barely speak English, and hang out at the local burger joint during school hours. College-educated parents (such as mine) now no longer want to buy a home in their neighborhood, and it is in a downward cycle. If we halted the influx of illegal immigrants, home prices would at least stop plummeting.
