In this article, we will list 15 states with the highest percentage of illegal immigrants. You can skip our detailed analysis on immigration stats and dynamics and go straight to 5 States with the Highest Percentage of Illegal Immigrants.
Center for Immigration Studies defines illegal immigrants as all “foreign-born noncitizens who are not legal residents.” Based on this definition and the 14th Amendment of the United States, we have excluded US-born off springs of illegal immigrants for our research.
How much do illegal immigrants cost the United States?
On 27th January 2019, Donald Trump tweeted that the cost of illegal immigration so far (this year) has been $18,959,495,168. While this figure seems exaggerated, it does raise the question of the cost of illegal immigrants to the United States. Those wishing to settle in a state with a high percentage of illegal immigrants will be concerned with this question because it affects the labor market.
It is challenging to calculate the exact impact of undocumented immigration on the US economy. However, independent nongovernmental organizations frequently publish studies that estimate these costs. Federation for American Immigration Reform (FAIR) - a nonprofit and anti-immigration organization, recently published a study that estimates the cost of illegal immigration to be $150.7 billion. According to the study, the total federal expenditure on illegal aliens is $66.4 billion. It also claims that this expenditure has increased by 45 percent since 2017. The study also claims that illegal aliens contribute about $31 billion in taxes.
