About ~1/yr, I'm working with folks who are migrating from Hispanola to the US. It's not a terribly public thing and tbh it's like a "travel su-su". You need someone to vouch for you for the government to even consider you worth admitting and that's if you're not on the immigration shit list (insert Family Guy acceptability score-hard here from the TSA sequence).

The cost of getting people moved around safely climbs (as with everything) however things like cruises and luxury spaces.

Spaces that operate _right next_ to a set of humanitarian crises that the United Nations created (https://www.nytimes.com/2016/08/18/world/americas/united-nations-haiti-cholera.html - The United Nations reintroduced cholera to Haiti) or the United States had a deep hand in (like the Duveillars, the US did everything to keep them in Haiti - it was the strongest anti-Communist effort in the island and with its proximity to Cuba, the murder of Haitian citizens meant nothing).

We don't even have to go back THAT far, we can ask the sitting President of the United States about his feelings about Haiti before (https://charlierose.com/videos/25686).

If we're keeping it a buck, if all of this happened within the coordinates of say, 48° 51' N, 2° 21' E, would have been not only addressed but kept as rotating headline news (pray for XXXXX - look up the coords!)
