California and Texas are the states hosting the biggest populations of undocumented immigrants in the U.S., according to estimates by Pew Research Center. The two states were supporting undocumented populations of 2 million people and 1.6 million people in 2017 respectively. New York, Florida, Illinois and several more states along the Eastern seaboard also have a large population of undocumented people.
2017 was the first year in which Mexicans were not an absolute majority among undocumented immigrants in the U.S. anymore. In fact, as Statista’s Katharina Buchholz notes, immigrant inflow from the USA’s Southern neighbor has declined significantly since 2007, while more undocumented immigrants entered from Central America, South America and Asia.
