That's not intended to be a knock on Chicago, it's just that immigrants tend to move to where family or friends already are.
Most of the migrants are currently living in Chicago apartments by now with under the table jobs. Are those units supposed to be marked vacant when they are occupied?

You could also make the same argument for millions of American citizens who are living temporarily in major cities for seasonal jobs or education.

Aren’t college students temporarily being housed while they await graduation before they return to their hometowns? They get counted.

If a person is residing in a city at the time of enumeration, they should be counted. If they relocate, then surveys in the following years will track them.

Yes, this is accurate.

If it’s even being enforced in Illinois…

The Census estimates are supposed to be a imputed estimate of people residing in a jurisdiction in a point in time. So yes, the migrants should be counted, same as anyone else, if that's their residence, whether they're staying for 1 day or 100 years. College students count, prisoners count, etc.

And everyone is "temporary" in any jurisdiction. Everyone is eventually removed from the count/estimate, one way or the other.

uncle joe upped the fed loot again to process migrants, so it will go faster:


MARCH 11, 2024

The Budget includes a $1.9 billion (7 percent) base budget increase for U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) and Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), as well as funds to expand and improve the immigration courts, address the root causes of migration, and combat illicit fentanyl trafficking.

around downtown and certain other neighborhoods are growing and immigrants are coming, but other neighborhoods continue bleeding. it seems to have stabilized to a wash. which of course is a vast improvement over past decades. good news is there are plenty of various jobs and also new homes and apts are being built on the old cleared urban praires.

I guess we'll see in 2030.
Like Emprise said, I'm not buying it. The numbers and tone on the ground don't reflect the census estimates.

The City of Miami crossed the 450k mark. A slight increase from 449k to 455,924.

Miami-Dade County's population came in at 2,686,867. Still down 15k from its 2020 population of 2,701,776 but a 12k gain on 2022.

Almost every municipality in Miami-Dade County is still down in population from 2020 except for the City of Miami and Doral.

Miami Beach continues to lose population. It had 91k people in 2000 and is now down to 79k. Residents continue to be pushed out in favor of 2nd home owners and AirBnB rentals.

I got an old college friend up in Minneapolis who is an immigration lawyer and recently doing a lot of contract work for the feds on this issue. When he's spoken about it, it's been in terms of "oh shit man, what an unholy clusterfuck, we're doing our best, but there's only so much we can do".

Needless to say, lots of these migrants are gonna fall through the legal cracks, especially in hardcore sanctuary cities like Chicago, where there are already many tens of thousands of undocumented immigrants to blend into the woodwork with.


And yeah, regardless of any of that, whether they're here for 18 months or 18 years, they should be counted, as they are people living in Chicago, and in lots of other major US cities too.

Excellent, sounds just like what is happening in Detroit. Hopefully these trends continue to accelerate over the next few years.

i saw even more good news is poverty is dropping steadily — at the end of 2022 cleveland was 111K, down from 114K in 2019 and ~130K in 2015. MSA-wide, with 50K available jobs (according to Greater Cleveland Partnership) and 38K unemployment (according to the Census Bureau) its looking up for sure.

I wonder too if those estimates have counted the Ukrainian refugees coming into Chicago. All my life the Ukrainian village never felt particularly Ukrainian probably given that they were a more mature immigrant group but I was by there recently and ive actually never seen or heard that many Ukrainian speaking people there.

A lot of the backlog is being driven by immigration courts not being given the resources to move faster. Congress can speed that up if they wanted, but sometimes problems are better for politicians than solutions.

I haven't even heard of many of these cities. Celina? Fulshear? Georgetown? Sounds like AI-derived places.
