Life in Florida’s Poorest Town | ICE Raids, Inflation & Survival

Just 45 minutes from the million-dollar mansions of Naples, Florida, lies a community facing a staggering reality. Welcome to Immokalee, often called the poorest town in Florida, where the average resident earns less than $20,000 a year. In this boots-on-the-ground vlog, we explore the "Other Florida" to see how residents are navigating a brutal cost of living crisis. From soaring inflation that has doubled rent for some—like a small trailer room jumping from $450 to $900 a month—to the community-wide fear caused by recent ICE raids, this is a story of survival. In this video, you’ll hear directly from the people of Immokalee: Esteban discusses the impact of recent immigration crackdowns on local farm workers. Valerie, who has been homeless for two years, shares the reality of panhandling to survive. Jenny, a former tomato picker from Haiti, shows us her humble living space and the struggle to afford basic housing. Long-time residents like Louis and Suen reflect on why they still love this community despite the hardships. Immokalee is the "tomato capital of the world," but the people picking our food are being squeezed by a housing market that is leaving them behind.
