Most of America’s population growth since the pandemic is due to immigration gains. Check out the latest from @brookings.edu Bill Frey --> www.brookings.edu/articles/imm...
U.S. population growth from July 2023 to July 2024 was the largest in over two decades. This growth was driven by immigration, not a return to pre-pandemic birth and death levels, according to new census data. In his latest report, William H. Frey highlights the states and regions that Americans are moving to and explains the vital role immigration plays as the national population ages.
