From 2009 to 2013, millions of (unauthorized) immigrants entered the United States.

The top five countries of birth for these immigrants were Mexico 56%, Guatemala 6%, El Salvador 4%, Honduras 3%, and China 3%.


The largest migration corridor in the world is Mexico-USA, with almost 12 million (official) recorded migrations from Mexico to the US in 2010 alone.


The second largest migration corridor in 2010 was between the Ukraine and Russia, followed by Bangladesh and India.

In both instances, a large number of natives inadvertently became “migrants” when their borders and boundaries were changed.

Over the last several years, poverty, harsh living conditions, deteriorating political and socio-economic conditions, increasing youth and women unemployment and underemployment, armed conflicts, the threats to peace and security, violation of fundamental rights, natural disasters and famine as well as external pull factors have combined to trigger both voluntary and forced population movements from and within Africa.

Better economic opportunities, more jobs, and the promise of a better life often pull people towards a new country.



It is estimated that Africa loses in excess of 70,000 skilled professionals annually to emigration, resulting in a huge human capacity deficit in the continent.



In 2009, Zimbabweans made the most asylum applications, in 2010 and 2011 the most asylum applications were made by Iranians.

The poorest countries are the ones with the least emigration, that is people leaving the country to live abroad.

Although international migration is intrinsically tied with the search for jobs, people in the most impoverished countries will most likely not have the money to finance a trip.


The Central African Republic, the Democratic Republic of the Congo and Niger countries with some of the lowest U.N. Human Development Index ratings and GDP per capita all have less than 3% of their population living outside their borders.

An estimated 50-60% of illegal immigrants residing in the United States did not illegally cross the border.

Instead, they obtained legal visas as employees, students, or tourists and did not return home when their visas expired.
