Is Miami Home to the Most Foreign-Born Residents?
November 20, 2007
Technically, no. That unique distinction is reserved for Sweetwater, FL. Although in Miami-Dade County, City-Data (the source of the list) factors it in as an independent municipality. This is the same for all municipalities within Miami-Dade. In Fact, in the City-Data U.S. Top 100 list of Cities with the Highest Percentage of Foreign Born Residents, the City of Miami ranks fifteenth. Let’s take a look at the top twenty:
Fourteen of the United States’ top twenty cities (pop. 5,000+) with the most foreign-born residents are part of Miami’s metropolitan area. Not only does Miami, as a metropolitan area, top the U.S. list, but dominates it. Actually, Miami tops the world’s list–ahead of Toronto and L.A. Although this isn’t exactly breaking news, seeing how City-Data further breaks down the foreign-born list really highlights Miami-Dade County’s unique demographics.

I don’t even come to this website as often as I did because I don’t even expect an update on this site. I don’t know when this website will be updated, I hope it’s soon.
