Migration within the United States

Migration within the United States

Listen to Audio Version:


In August of 2014 the New York Times published a report about migration within the United States (click the map to view the article and use the interactive map).  They created an interactive map that shows how many people, state by state, were born in that state vs. other U.S. states, or from outside the U.S.  They went even further to provide the same data historically for the years 1950 and 1900 so you can see how migration has changed within the U.S. over the past 100+ years.

It is interesting to note that not only has migration within the U.S. increased, but the number of residents from “Outside the U.S.” has increased significantly in the past 50 and 100 years. Many of those immigrants, or “New Americans”, speak a foreign language at home and as their first language.
