This project aims to visualize the changes in the foreign-born population of the United States from 1980 to 2018, with a focus on four key areas: population percentage, educational attainment, languages spoken at home, and immigration status.
Using data from the Pew Research Center (based on the US Census), the project will examine how the size, characteristics, and contributions of the foreign-born population have changed over time. This project can be used as a tool to explore the ways in which these changes have impacted the overall diversity of the country and the cultural, economic, and social fabric of American society.
