Historic Levels of Immigration Fuel U.S. Demographic Shift

 In what marks the most significant immigration wave in more than two decades, the United States has entered a new chapter of population expansion. The total U.S. population has now climbed past 340 million, with net international migration accounting for an astonishing 84% of the population increase recorded between 2023 and 2024.

Far from being a national trend alone, immigration has proven essential for state-level stability, preventing population decline in 16 states. The South continues to lead this demographic surge, with Texas and Florida emerging as the fastest-growing states.



Celebrating New Americans: 818,500 Join the U.S. in 2024

 The journey to becoming a U.S. citizen marks an important chapter in many immigrants' lives. The naturalization process, managed by USCIS, culminates in an official welcome into the American community. For prospective applicants — and partners like USAFIS — the latest figures shine a light on both the scale and success of this initiative.

In the 2024 fiscal year, 818,500 immigrants completed the process and took the oath of allegiance, officially joining the American family. From every corner of the globe, these individuals share a commitment to building a future in the United States. USCIS offices in Houston, Dallas, Chicago, Newark, and San Francisco processed the largest numbers of these inspiring stories.
