The elderly, disabled, people who have mental disabilities, who are on public assistance and the poor. This can apply to recent immigrants who have English as a second language too — people in Mississippi (before Hurricane Katrina) who spoke Spanish didn't evacuate because they didn't have the language.

en I have a friend in Pueblo whose parents' grandparents were immigrants, and they took great pride in learning English and becoming a part of it. To blend in, you need to learn the language and become a part of the community and not isolate yourself. It's imperative.
