" Latin American Populations"
IntroductionIn this chapter, you have learned that many Latin American countries have high population growth rates. As a result, increasing numbers of Latin Americans are leaving impoverished rural areas and moving to cities to find better jobs, housing, and health care. In many cases, cities can’t keep up with this demand for services. You will learn how some Latin American governments are using a new strategy to break the cycle of poverty.
