Drug Situation: North Carolina has experienced a significant increase in drug trafficking activity, some of it due to a recent influx of Mexican nationals into the state. Since 1980, Raleigh's Hispanic population of immigrants grew 1,189 percent, or by an estimated 72,580 immigrants. Also, since 1980, Charlotte's Hispanic population of immigrants grew 962 percent, or an estimated 77,092 immigrants. Greensboro's Hispanic immigrants grew 962 percent as well, or by an estimated 62,210 immigrants. These figures are only estimates due to the difficulty in identifying the number of immigrants located throughout the state with illegal residency. While the immigrants themselves may not be involved in trafficking, their presence allows traffickers from Mexico to hide within ethnic Mexican communities. They most commonly transport and distribute cocaine, marijuana, and methamphetamine. In addition, the rapid population growth in areas such as Raleigh has resulted in additional crime, including an increase in drug trafficking activity.
