Kids pushed out of schools in Logansport, Indiana, after migrants swelled county's population by 30% --'Everybody else is falling behind' | 21 Oct 2024 | Thousands of migrants from Haiti and dozens of other countries have arrived in this isolated Indiana city of 18,000 in just a few years. Furious residents say they no longer feel safe in the once-sleepy downtown, and their kids are being muscled out of the schools by new students who don't know English and need a lot of help. They blame Kamala Harris and Joe Biden. "Do something. Our community cannot withstand this many people being here," Candice Espinoza, 32, a local photographer, told The Post when asked what her message would be to the Democratic presidential candidate. Nancy Baker, 44, a mother of two, was more blunt about what she would tell Harris: "Get off my property." It’s not entirely clear how many migrants have arrived in Logansport -- but Cass County Health Department Administrator Serenity Alter told The Post that the surrounding area's population has surged nearly 30%.
