Table 1 looks at the demographic characteristics of the immigrant and native-born populations in rural and urban places. There are stark differences between the two groups. Immigrants account for approximately 4.8 percent of the rural population compared to 16.6 percent of the urban population. Among rural immigrants, 9.1 percent are children and 11.6 percent are over age 65. The vast majority of rural (79.3 percent) and urban (79.8 percent) immigrants are working-age (18–65 years old). Far more native-born rural Americans are children (23.4 percent) or seniors (16.8 percent). Our analysis finds that rural immigrants are different than their rural native-born and urban immigrant counterparts on a host of demographic characteristics, including age, education, and family structure. In recent years, researchers have documented the changing demographics of rural areas, with a specific focus on changes in racial-ethnic composition and immigration patterns,1 particularly the increased migration of Hispanics to rural places.2 In spite of this attention to the changing demographics of rural America, surprisingly little is known about how rural immigrants compare to both their urban peers and native-born counterparts. In this brief we use American Community Survey (ACS) five-year estimates to document demographic and economic characteristics of the immigrant and native-born populations in the United States by metropolitan status. We focus on a wide range of demographic and economic indicators that relate to immigrants’ ability to assimilate and thrive in rural America.
