Study Documents the Economic Contributions of Immigrants in the U.S.

From the document “Immigrants and the Economy” published by the Fiscal Policy Institute “Latinos constitute 46 percent
of the immigrant population in the country’s 25 largest metropolitan areas.” So what about the economic contributions? Check out the whole report, this is good strategic planning data if you are in economic development. Too bad it concentrates in urban centers though, we know well that the rural area is also benefiting from immigrant labor force and entrepreneurship.
