Our friends at the Immigration Research Initiative (IRI) launched an exciting new data tool called “Data in Detail” this week. The tool will enable policy advocates, legislators, and journalists to learn more about the role of immigrants in the U.S. economy. Data in Detail shows data about immigrant populations at the national level and for each state and Washington, D.C. It also provides data on the share of economic output that can be attributed to immigrants. Lastly, it also provides key insights into some demographic characteristics of immigrants, like their most common birth countries, English proficiency, and educational attainment, as well as key information about immigrants’ economic outcomes.
We hope PIF members will take a moment to scroll through the tool!
