As President Obama presses communities to accept Syrian refugees, his current hometown of Washington, D.C., is likely to be spared much of the pain.
There are about 180 communities across the U.S. that welcome refugees, but some of the more obvious cities, including San Francisco, New York and, yes, Washington, aren't high on the list because they are just too darn expensive for the refugees.
Instead, the top major cities are places such as Atlanta, San Diego, Houston, Dallas, Chicago and Boston, the State Department says. And there are a host of medium-sized cities as well: Boise, Idaho, Nashville, Tennessee, Tucson, Arizona, Buffalo, New York, and Erie, Pennsylvania, are all on that list, the department said in September as it laid out plans to take 10,000 Syrian refugees this fiscal year.
Handling refugees spans multiple government agencies, with the State Department involved on the front end, Homeland Security overseeing the vetting and the Office of Refugee Resettlement within Health and Human Services responsible for resettling the refugees once they're here.
The ORR is the same office that is handling the ongoing surge of illegal immigrant children on the border over the last few years, and it relies on a network of nine non-profits -- six of them faith-based -- to place the refugees in communities that can handle them.

Seems this unnamed 0bama lapdog official thinks everything is just dandy, this insanity has to be stopped now.
The GOP has been well-paid off to accept this travesty.
They are al Qaeda, and they are not vetted
(except by the unvetted Moslem pRes_ _ent).
We will see if they can get passed Texas Gov. Greg Abbott who says they won’t be allowed to come to Texas. His wheelchair is strong and they would have to get around him and his chair to get here.
BUMP!
You didn’t think the elites were going to endaager themselves or their loved ones, did you?
Keep them out.
If they come send them to sanctuary cities.
That shows how much 0dungheap thinks of America. SOB FUBO!!!
Is there a master list we can see all cities?
I also believe those ‘nonprofits’ are being paid upwards of $100k per invader, I mean, refugee placed. A tidy profit, no doubt disappearing into selected pockets and purses everywhere...
I don’t see any sent to an Arab country either.
i looked at the list. there are a bunch in manhattan and Brooklyn. dont get where he got his info from
0dungheap’s plan is the importation of ISIS posing as refugees to commit horrific atrocities with automatic weapons so as to justify his plan for gun confiscation. False flag for the declaration of Martial Law and house to house raids. Can he get this done in a year, or will he suspend the election amidst his plan?
But we can accept that there is a chance that some terrorists will slip through this refugee process eventually killing many Americans.
muggs
Why aren’t they being resettled in the tony suburbs of DC?
He’ll force them in - then after the shooting and exploding starts we’ll want to deport.
Then he’ll say “what are you gonna do - round up and deport 11 million”
Missouri Governor Jay Nixon welcomes Syrian “refugees”
There is a roar starting here in Boise, Idaho about this. Don’t think it’s going to happen. If it does, it’s going to get UGLY.
We have a terrific little city and we want to keep it that way.
Syrian refugees in Idaho? Talk about culture shock... there is NOTHING here for them.
We are a well armed populace here in Idaho.
Who decides where they go, the Feds or the Governors?
