Hungarian

  • By ideastream contributor Justin Glanville Back in the 1950s and 60s, the saying was that Buckeye had the largest concentration of Hungarians in the world outside Budapest. Ernest Mihaly was one of them. His parents emigrated to Buckeye in the 1910s, and when he was a kid the neighborhood was full of Hungarian stores. “We had about 8 butcher shops, and we had about six or seven bakeries. It was a city within a city,” he said.
