11:20Now PlayingChile's healthy economy and political stability is drawing more and more economic migrants from across Latin America to pursue 'the Chilean Dream.'
The country's foreign-born population has doubled in the last five years, reaching 500,000 migrants. And that number is expected to double again in the next decade.

VICE News correspondent Daniel Hernandez meets camp residents, activists, and politicians to explore how the face of Chile is changing in the wake the migration boom.
