Now, why would all these “undocumented immigrants” leave?
Immigration Slowdown Hits Every Metro Area in the U.S., Census Shows
In the Laredo metro area, on the Texas border, immigration screeched to a virtual standstill.
El Centro, a metro that has historically served as a desert gateway into California, lost more people to other countries than it gained.
In Denver and its suburbs, the net immigration rate fell by almost three-quarters. In the Chicago area, it was slashed by nearly two-thirds.
Every metro area in the United States, in fact, experienced lower immigration rates during the year leading up to July 2025 compared with the previous year, according to new estimates released on Thursday by the Census Bureau.
In about 75 percent of all counties, overall population growth — including immigration, domestic migration, births and deaths — either slowed or turned negative. Only 25 percent grew faster.
Where did they all go?
Some of the strongest population gains came in suburban counties, especially in the South, which continued to grow rapidly as they attracted people from other parts of the country.
About 18,000 people moved into Pasco County, Fla., a suburban community about 30 miles outside Tampa, enough to increase its population by nearly 2.8 percent.
Unfortunately, some of this is simply urban liberals leaving the hellholes they voted for.
But for counties along the Mexican border, things looked quite different. In contrast to years when they experienced a surge in immigration, total populations in more than half of these counties dipped in the new estimates.
In Webb County, Texas, which includes Laredo, net international migration dropped by about 95 percent. It gained fewer than 700 people total in the new estimates.
So, the illegals and fake asylum seekers left and stopped coming? I think the reason is related to Orange
Some of those counties lost residents to other parts of the United States, a trend that has been ongoing for years. But immigration was a major driver of the decline. Net international migration across all those urban counties fell to about 932,000 from about two million.
Those new immigrants often required a lot of resources and assistance, said Julia Gelatt, an associate director at the Migration Policy Institute, a research center in Washington. “So some cities,” she added, “might be relieved to have a pause in those people who need initial assistance.”
Well, if they want to come to the U.S. then they need to make sure they can pay for themselves, not have the US taxpayers do it. This upsets Democrats quite a bit since they count on all these foreigners to vote for Democrats.

In the last five years, Indigenous agriculture has received attention in academia as an alternative model, though on a smaller scale, to modern farming systems. Research has shown that some traditional farming systems, such as growing maize, beans and squash together, protect soil health, reduce biodiversity loss and support Indigenous knowledge, known as traditional ecological knowledge.
Chevron said it is threatening to close its oil refineries in California due to overregulation, which the oil company said is contributing to price spikes amid the war in Iran.
