The Hard Data Behind Immigration to America

Americans argue passionately about immigration. But almost no one talks about the actual data. So, what do the numbers look like? As of 2023, America was home to 47.8 million immigrants, 14.3% of the country’s population. By far, the largest proportion come from Mexico, which contributes 23% of the country’s immigrant population. India is next at 6%, followed by China at 5%. The state with the highest percentage of immigrants is California (27% of its population). It’s followed by New Jersey (24%) and New York (23%). As for illegal immigration, it’s estimated that about 13.7 million people — or about 29% of the immigrant population — is here without permission. However, many of those cases defy stereotypes. As of 2019, between 58-62% of illegal immigrants had been here for over a decade. And between 22-23% had been in the country for 20 years or more. Another interesting fact: many of those people didn’t sneak over the border. As of 2017, an estimated 46% of people illegally in the U.S. had come legally but overstayed their visas. 📝 SCRIPT 📚 ADDITIONAL READING ✅ SOURCES AND MORE at https://kiteandkey.media/4njm9Io The world is complicated … but the explanations don’t have to be. ⚡ New videos every Wednesday.
