I think if you are going to work with immigrants like a school teacher in the southern US Spanish would be useful or for police and medical people in southern states.
I am in western WA and our second most popular language after English is Chinese. In Eastern WA they have migrant labor than many are Mexicans so in farming communities it would be handy to know. I never see Spanish speaking people except in one store but two stores are Chinese and I could use Chinese to order seafood instead of pointing to what I want. We have a entire Chinese mall but the stores mostly have people who speak English except the fish guys. They have some strange seafood I would love to ask what to do with it.

We are so close to Mexico that if we choose to learn a second language for enjoyment, it should be Spanish.
