Yuma Culture
Yuma crosses the Colorado river in the Southwest. It’s a border city next to California. It’s home to Quechan and Cocopah people for millennia. You’ll find that Spanish is the language you’ll hear most since it is also heavily influenced by Spanish in the old days and also it borders Mexico. You’ll see a lot of Mexican restaurants with many Mexican descendants. In the winter, many people who live in Canada, Colorado and sometimes the Midwest flock to Yuma for warmer climate to visit.
