No one country has sent more of its nationals to the United States over the last decade than China, newly released Census Bureau data reveals.
Between 2018 and 2019, China replaced Mexico as the largest sending country of foreign-born immigrants to the U.S. over the last decade. In 2006, more Mexican nationals arrived in the U.S. than Chinese, Indians, and Canadians combined.
Fast forward to 2018 and China now sends the most foreign-born immigrants to the U.S. — surpassing India, Mexico, and Canada. Since 2010, alone, China has sent more foreign-born immigrants to the U.S. than any other country.

India, too, has sent more foreign-born immigrants to the U.S. than Mexico since 2010 — a pattern of legal immigration that has shifted the wage and job burden from America’s blue-collar workers to the white-collar workforce.
Every year, about 1.2 million legal immigrants are admitted to the country, the majority of which immediately begin competing for U.S. jobs against America’s working and middle class. Specifically, legal immigration from China and India has helped shift entire regions and industries in the U.S.
Take, for instance, that Chinese immigration has surpassed Mexican immigration in the state of California as of 2015. In Silicon Valley, California, foreign-born immigrants mostly from India now outnumber native-born Americans in the region’s tech industry.
The slowing of legal immigration from Mexico, a low-wage economy, and increases in Chinese and Indian immigration have helped delivered wage hikes to America’s working-class while white-collar American professionals continue to see their wages stagnate.
While blue-collar wages rose by about 4.3 percent last year thanks to a tightened labor market, according to Goldman Sachs, white-collar wages increased at a slower pace at 3.2 percent.

I really don’t understand what information the Census Bureau collects,
In the ‘in between years’, or for what purpose they collect it,
since it is far from the original purpose of proportioning House seats.
They discriminate against native Americans .
They hate us .
Wake up.
Excuse me, but I'm more American than you (most likely). Born and raised here (white), and have seen an influx of outsiders invade our state of California and flip it from Republican to Democrat. Being in the IT industry, I've seen an influx of Indians over the last half century. The ones I know are smart. They've told me of different castes in India, so I know there are different types. But the ones we're getting, I have no problem with them. I'll take them over the white and black ah*les from the east coast like Pelosi, anytime.
If they're decent conservatives, yes. If they're radical leftist scum like you, well no.
Are you a racist? Because that's racist talk. How many Indians do you know? Can you provide a link to proof of your assertions? Nada? I thought so. If anyone is stealing jobs, blame it on our Democrat politicians. But don't spread lies about them discriminating or hating us, without proof. There's plenty of proof of Mexicans and blacks discriminating and hating Americans, that can be seen every day. But I really don't see Indian gang-bangers going around assaulting and maiming white Americans. Grow up.
I hope they send a single hot chick, about 40 yrs old, plays violin or cello. Must like Bach, dogs, a cat, guns, motorcycles, boats, or st least my attachment to such.
I would take 1,000,000 Chinese immigrants before I would take 1 from the Middle East and/or Muslim.
I think most of the Chinese are ending up in the Seattle area - and driving IS worse. Also - walking in Costco.
But...but it China is doing SO WELL with their commie party why would they need or want to come here?
They and you are a America hating racist .
Show us the many millions American kids are stealing white collar jobs in India and China and then firing they natives for more Americans
How was India ?
total immigration moratorium NOW
end birthright citizenship NOW
Why don’t you and your buddy Ilhan Omar go complain elsewhere. You belong in Iran.
Indian invaders are stealing our kids future and also force laid off Americans to train these foreign invaders to do there jobs .
Your like that.
You ignore the facts India and China are not allowing Americans to steal jobs over there .
Move on Fraud .
we don't buy your lies.
Sort of agree with you.
I prefer 100 years to a permanent and total ban
from anywhere. Especially from the filthy Third World
dumps of Planet Earth.
Your inadequate grasp of English grammar is very telling. But of course you're a foreigner. An illegal alien? Where were you born? Are you from Mexico? Does the INS know about you? You are definitely a racist intolerant bigot with an agenda against legal immigrants. Very telling.
Why don't you back up your nonsense with proof? Because you have none. You are a racist bigot and there is no changing you. Disgusting, on the same level as Ilhan Omar and her ilk. Did you marry your brother?
Good. These legal immigrants make America stronger and richer. Just look at Silicon Valley and all the high tech hubs around the country. They are generating HUGE BEAUTIFUL wealth for the country.
I tell the kids, “Don’t be a slacker. Study hard and look into a STEM major.” Sure, it’s hard work and competitive, but the reward is ENORMOUS.
“Good decent people,”
I’ve dealt with tons of Indian business owners in my business. They are all corrupt. They rip off the system every chance they get. Multimillionaires and their kids are on Chip gov’t paid medicare. They find a way.
All their family members are on welfare.
They operate here just like they do in India-everything is corrupt. Money under the table.
I no longer take them on as clients. Had enough of them.
I gave one an idea and my company spent close to 250 hours setting up the benefit plan, setting up employee meetings and at the last minute they gave the business to their Indian friend.
“I gave one an idea and my company spent close to 250 hours setting up the benefit plan, setting up employee meetings and at the last minute they gave the business to their Indian friend.”
After my company set up the plan with the insurance carrier, filed all the applications, gov’t paperwork something their Indian friend was incapable of doing.
What was rich about a year later the Indian business owner called me and asked If I could help the company out as their India friend was incapable of doing all the HRA, FSA and reams of gov’t tax paperwork.
I told him to pound sand.
