Immigrants Driving Housing

Roughly half a million housing units in the U.S. are newly occupied each year by immigrants. To compare, new housing starts for the country are currently running at about 1.4 million annually.

In some regions of the U.S., immigrants account for more than 90 percent of all growth in housing demand. [Source: AP]
