Immigrants

From 2006 to 2018 the number of illegals living in the US was estimated to be about 11 million. In the past two years another 4 million have come into the country. If nothing is changed this trend will continue and international polls show that 160 million people want to immigrate to the US. This is from a 2017 report. A Gallup World Poll has found that 15 percent of the world's adults (750 million people) would like to move to another country if they had the chance. The research is based on 453,122 interviews in 152 countries. Desire to migrate is strongest in Sub-Saharan Africa, followed by parts of Europe outside the EU. When it comes to the most desired destinations, 21 percent of potential migrants worldwide would like to move to the United States. That equated to 158 million adults. Canada was the second most desired destination followed by Germany.
