Even if Melrose Park is 60% Hispanic, that means 40% are white. about 2/3 of the WHITE people in Melrose Park are Italian. The Mayor is Italian, The chief of Police is Italian. There are still some Italian Neighborhoods in Melrose Park along with Elmwood Park, Grand Ave.(in the city), Taylor St.(in the city), 26th St. (in the city) and a few more I can't think of right this moment.
