Oxnard’s population of over 200,000 residents includes many who are of Latina/o, immigrant, and indigenous origin, and an increasing number of the city’s young Latina/o residents are attending college, with many beginning their postsecondary education at the local community college. Because we know that a college degree can offer significant opportunities for jobs that provide a living wage and benefits like health care, it is important to account for how gender shapes the experiences of Latina/o young adults as they pursue a college education. Recognizing the importance of how the experiences of males and females can differ, this report seeks to inform local efforts to facilitate the upward mobility of Oxnard’s Latina and Latino residents who are eighteen to thirty-four years of age.
