The Beauforts (informal immigrant communities)

The Beauforts are informal immigrant communities, often centered around neighboring towns or neighborhoods, where residents share cultural ties, language, and mutual support. These communities typically form spontaneously as newcomers settle in and maintain connections with their homeland traditions. While not official settlements, they foster social cohesion, facilitate access to resources, and help preserve cultural identity amidst new environments. The Beauforts exemplify how immigrant groups organize themselves informally, blending integration with cultural preservation in urban or suburban settings.
