Immigration

In recent years, Lindenhurst has seen an increased immigration trend. For example, at Our Lady of Perpetual Help, the local Roman Catholic Church, there is a Mass in Polish because a large number of Catholics in Lindenhurst speak Polish. This trend is also visible in Lindenhurst High School, where a increasing percentage of the student body (which numbers over 2,000 students; grades 9-12) were either born in another country or their parents were. Most come from Poland, Ukraine, or Latin America.
