Immigration See other Immigration Articles Title: Nearly 30 Percent Of The Population In These Major U.S. Cities Are Immigrants With a foreign-born population of more than 44 million, the US has the largest number of migrants in the world, the report states. While U.S. immigrants come from almost every country in the world, Mexico is the most common country of origin for the foreign-born population. Researchers at the Background Checks analyzed data from the U.S. Census Bureaus 2020 American Community Survey and the Pew Research Center to determine the U.S. metropolitan area with the largest population. Accounting for 24.8% of the foreign-born population, Mexico claims the largest number of U.S. immigrants. The Chinese and Indian immigrant populations are also large, making up a collective 12.2% of the foreign-born population, the publication notes. Pew Research Center analysis of Census Bureau data shows that about one million immigrants arrive in the U.S. each year, and the most common region for new immigrants is now Asia, which recently surpassed Hispanic countries. Immigrants currently comprise 13.7 percent of the population, but in large cities, nearly 50 percent of the population are migrants. Over a quarter of Californias population is foreign-born, according to the analysis. While immigrants live in every U.S. state, some parts of the country have larger foreign-born populations than others. Over one-fourth of Californias population is foreign-bornmostly coming from Mexicomaking California the top state for immigrants. New Jersey and New York also have large immigrant populations, with 22.7% and 22.4% of their populations being immigrants, respectively. Alternatively, Montana and West Virginia have very small immigrant populations, accounting for just 2.2% and 1.6% of their populations, respectively.

That total is precipitously spiking day by day under the Biden administrations open border policies. U.S. Army National Guardsmen and Border Patrol agents are even assisting immigrants with illegally enter the country and marching them into cities for transport as seen in the video below documented in Roma, Texas. In June, nearly 192,000 migrants were apprehended while illegally entering the country, the Department of Homeland Security announced pm July 16. In fiscal year 2022, which began in October 2021, Border Patrol has apprehended more than 1.6 million illegal immigrants crossing the border to date. In addition, approximately 400,000 more migrants successfully sneaked into the U.S. interior without being apprehended. This brings the total known migrant crossings to more than 2 million with three months remaining in FY22. With only three months to go in the current fiscal year, apprehensions are only about 25,000 shy of last years record-shattering 1,659,206 apprehensions, Breitbart News reports. In addition, approximately 400,000 more migrants successfully sneaked into the U.S. interior without being apprehended. This brings the total known migrant crossings to more than 2 million with three months remaining in FY22. Approximately one in three Americans believe an effort is underway to replace-U.S. born Americans with immigrants for electoral gains, according to a recent poll by The Associated Press-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research. About 30 percent of those surveyed also feared more immigration is causing U.S.-born Americans to lose their economic, political and cultural influence.

Black neighborhoods are bad. I have read of terrible juvenile gang violence. I follow them in the paper. I went to school there and graduated in 1982 so I left. Portland and Seattle used to be good places. No more. There are no good cities left in America. That is why I want to move away from this town near the New Madrid fault line to a small county 300 miles east. Charlestown has always been a center of thugs. Movies have been made about it. Their schools recently were teaching that violence was OK in the name of Social Justice.
