How has immigration affected the development of the United States?
The available evidence suggests that immigration leads to more innovation, a better educated workforce, greater occupational specialization, better matching of skills with jobs, and higher overall economic productivity. Immigration also has a net positive effect on combined federal, state, and local budgets.
What effect does immigration have on population size?
Immigrants contribute to population growth because of both their own numbers and their above-average fertility. Most of those who immigrate are working-age adults, so immigrants are more likely than U.S.-born residents to be in their child-bearing years.
Has the 2020 Census been counted?
Yes, the 2020 census has been completed, but full redistricting data hasn’t been released. The first results of the 2020 census were released in April 2021, however, the full redistricting data will not be delivered until September 2021.
Is there any missing data from the 2020 census?
Although we strive to obtain all demographic and housing data from every individual in the census, missing data are part of every census process. The 2020 Population Estimates found the resident population under age 1 (shown as 0) was 3,735,010 – down about 209,000 from the 2010 Census count of 3,944,153.
Is the census tract a good representation of my neighborhood?
The census tract may not perfectly match how you would define your neighborhood because we work with city and county governments to define tracts. However, they often are good representations.
What information is collected in a demographic survey?
All Census Bureau demographic surveys collect information about the residents of each housing unit and how they are related. The level of detail collected varies, as well as the availability of other characteristics of household members.
