Limitations & comparability

Annual sample estimates, not a point-in-time census or immigration flows. Foreign-born means not a U.S. citizen at birth and includes naturalized citizens. Standard 2020 1-year estimates were not released. Published 90% margins of error retained for foreign-born counts; no invented uncertainty for derived shares or correlation. Population controls changed after the 2020 census, and revised migration controls particularly affect 2024; comparisons require caution. No substitution of experimental 2020 or overlapping five-year estimates.

Use the archived source vintage and stated reference period. Do not mix national and England/Wales observations.
