In the ongoing debate about immigration, a subtext has been concern over the degree to which Hispanic immigrants are assimilating into broader U.S. society. A study by Ipsos Public Affairs (based on polling last fall of Hispanic adults, whether immigrants or not) gives some hints.

One query asked whether respondents agreed that most of their friends “are from my country of origin.” Thirty-eight percent strongly agreed — 35 percent of women, 40 percent of men. Age wasn’t a consistent dividing line, with 39 percent of 18-34-year-olds, 30 percent of 35-54s and 52 percent of those 55-plus agreeing strongly.
