Question

WHERE did the Jewish immigrants tend to settle when they came to Texas? Which river?

Answer 1

Jewish immigrants to Texas in the late 19th and early 20th centuries primarily settled in urban areas, with many establishing communities in cities such as San Antonio, Houston, and Dallas. A significant number also settled along the banks of the Rio Grande River, particularly in towns like Brownsville and Laredo, which served as entry points for immigrants coming from Mexico and other parts of the world. The Rio Grande was an important geographical feature that influenced the settlement patterns of Jewish immigrants in Texas.
