Mapping Immigration: Legal Permanent Residents (LPRs)

Legal permanent residents (LPRs) are foreign nationals who have been granted the right to reside permanently in the United States. LPRs are often referred to as simply “immigrants,” but they are also known as “permanent resident aliens” and “green card holders.”

This site provides links to maps (in PDF format) showing LPR flow by state or metropolitan area of residence as a percent of the total LPR flow. Three sets of maps are presented:
1) total LPR flow by state and core based statistical area (CBSA) of residence,
2) class of admission, and
3) region and country of birth.
