For any algebraic curve with unbounded branches in the plane, two numbers in [0, ∞] are defined that measure how closely to the curve it is possible to find infinitely many integer points. These numbers are shown to be 1 for almost all such curves. The state of the art in estimating these numbers for several classes of curves is also discussed.
