Fear grips idyllic Nantucket amid migrant crime spike: 'A lot of bad people'
Fox News
Some residents of Nantucket, a liberal stronghold, say they don't feel as safe as they once did after five illegal migrants accused of sex crimes and assault there were seized by ICE.
Immigrants – many who have obtained H2B visas for seasonal work – are a vital part of Nantucket's tourism industry and make up a large portion of the summer vacation spot's year-round population. Multiple local bars, like The Muse, host packed Latino nights each week; 41.5% of students in Nantucket's public schools speak a language other than English at home, per online school district data.
