More Come from Western Hemisphere

Using data from the Current Population Survey (CPS), the Center for Immigration Studies (CIS) found that the sources of legal and illegal immigration have shifted in recent years. CIS observed that:

“In 2022, 52 percent of all new immigrants (legal and illegal together) were from the Western Hemisphere, excluding Canada, compared to 33 percent of new arrivals in 2014. New arrivals are those who came in 2020, 2021 or the first part of 2022. . . .

“The number and share of new immigrants from East Asia has declined significantly. In 2022, only 12 percent of newcomers came from the region, compared to 25 percent in 2014.

“The number and share of new immigrants from the Indian subcontinent also fell, declining from 16 percent of newcomers in 2018 to only 11 percent in 2022.”
