Migrants changed this small town. Locals can’t agree if that’s good or bad

Fremont in Nebraska is a thousand miles from Mexico. It's one of many communities a long way from the southern border where residents feel a recent influx of migrants has changed where they live.

Central American migrants started arriving in the town more than a decade ago - and more have moved there since a record surge of border crossings at the beginning of the Biden administration.

Immigration and border security is a key issue in the presidential election, so how are voters in Fremont talking about it?
