Hispanics in Kansas Face Lower-Paying Jobs Amid Education Gaps
An AP report notes many Hispanics in Kansas work low wage jobs due to limited English skills and education. Lydia Gonzales of Garden City cites long hours and scarce opportunities, while economist David Burress highlights barriers but sees rising college completion among Hispanics. 2000 data show whites earn higher median incomes than Hispanics. Hispanics comprise 7 percent of Kansans as whites dominate 83 percent. A Gini measure illustrates growing income inequality.
