Default Dominicans in London

Thought this may be of interest.

From the 2001 Census of England and Wales:

501 residents in England and Wales specified the Dominican Republic as country of birth

189 residents in London specified the Dominican Republic as country of birth

Default So where are they all?

We know a few Dominicans living in England, there is usually an Independence Day celebration in London where quite a few Dominicans get together but other than that you don't really hear much from them here, which is a shame.

There is a merengue band out of London which I got to meet when I was there a couple of years ago and still keep in touch. The name is Merengada. Do a search on google to check out their site. I know that at least one of the members is Dominican. Check them out.
