Proximity first and foremost. They don't have to cross oceans to get here. And most, not all, Latin American country's have an endless supply of people that are living under extreme poverty conditions .That combined with a higher standard of living in the USA,and how costly and long it takes to enter legally,makes millions of illegal aliens from Latin country's. Its also very easy to enter the US illegally since our government doesn't do its job and secure our borders.
