Talk:Foreign born

Removed from Cleanup List
This article was placed in the cleanup queue on March 2008. Over the last roughly 6 years, no cleanup reason has been provided. Substantial edits have taken place not related to the cleanup tag. I am removing the tag for now. If in the future the tag is re-aadded, please include a "reason" flag and note your reasons for doing so here so that the issue can be resolved. Also feel free to contact me directly for help. Jaydubya93 (talk) 14:02, 16 January 2014 (UTC)

Merge
I merged in the list of foreign ciies but the article still reads like a disorganized list of facts on two related subjects (foreign born scientists in the US and cities with maor foreign born populations) rather than a descriptive artice. I also have no included any of the international pictures from the old "list of foreign born per city" article. Anyone who wants to add them can look at the wikicode from:This prevous edition Avraham (talk) 18:42, 11 March 2008 (UTC)

Largest source of immigrants in Toronto
Statcan says there are more recent immigrants from India than China, but that's for immigrants from 2001-2006:. In 2001 there were more foreign-born people from China: and by my calculations the 2001-2006 numbers isn't enough to make up the difference. It's unknown what happened since 2006. Until I see otherwise, I have left the country as China in the article. Hypertall (talk) 17:57, 17 September 2011 (UTC)

Cities/Regions With Highest Percentage of Foreign Born Population
USA is listed as #3 in the "Cities/Regions With Highest Percentage of Foreign Born Population" section however if you check the reference http://usgovinfo.about.com/cs/censusstatistic/a/foreignborn.htm "Of the total U.S. population, 11.8 percent were foreign-born" — Preceding unsigned comment added by 59.167.254.48 (talk) 20:42, 23 November 2011 (UTC)

p.s someone needs to re explain what a foreign born person is, still doesn't make sense, and is not clear — Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.196.203.41 (talk) 15:56, 7 February 2013 (UTC)

Oslo is missing from this list. Updated data available here: https://www.ssb.no/en/befolkning/statistikker/innvbef/aar/2017-03-02 — Preceding unsigned comment added by Franoteiza (talk • contribs) 14:52, 26 July 2018 (UTC)

Updated census data and added percentages to cities
If you would like to review my work feel free. Some of the data had been updated since last time it was changed. Cities have moved around. How do we verify there aren't *other* cities with higher populations than the bottom few? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 150.176.9.254 (talk) 14:41, 14 June 2018 (UTC)


 * The 2021 census recorded that 3,575,739 people or 40.6% of London's population were foreign-born making it the city with the second largest immigrant population after New York, in terms of absolute numbers.

Bangladesh on every metro area?
It appears some user added Bangladesh to most of the metropolitan/urban areas' list of immigrant sources. Vandalism or not, I'm pretty sure many of them have very small numbers of Bangladeshi diaspora if not none at all (e.g. New York City, Dallas-Fort Worth, Montreal, etc.).
