US Census: Pakistani-Americans Are Young, Well-educated and Prosperous

Or they simply do not have the power to decide to leave.

@RiazHaq Riaz's examples are purely anecdotal about them not sending their brightest. Furthermore, the Chinese have been in the US generationally longer, deeper and more in numbers than any other immigrant group. Them doing poorly has little to do with his generous assumptions.

Chinese are some of the least likely to violate visas (0.71%, about the same as Israelis 0.60%) while Pakistanis have a higher visa violation rate (2.73%) than even Mozambique (2.33%).

LOL! Since when do illegal entrants get visas first?!

The OP is a well-known agenda peddler to the point of excluding evidence, at least in my opinion, and borne out by the record here.

PS: On topic, just take out the physicians and watch the numbers tumble for the selected South Asian groups.

Illegal overstay is the #1 route of illegal immigration.

Visa overstays outnumber illegal border crossings; trend likely to continue

A report done by the Center for Migration Studies shows another reason to question the necessity and value of building a wall along the southern border.

You need to watch some of Mark Wein's youtube videos when he visited Pakistan and had the most delicious local food.

But there are many Chinese crossing over illegally, just as for many other nations often pointed out. Does China still have exit visas?

I too hope Pakistani-Americans cross the 1 million mark. I and my wife are trying to do our part by the grace of Allah.

1 million as in net worth or combined annual income?

A couple of years go I came across a study that was a study by job profession on each immigrant group. I wish I could find it. I distinctly remember that the Chinese population was mostly in the service industry 'restaurant work' and S Asian groups were more into 'skilled professional jobs'.

There's no border between US and China thus illegal overstay is one of the only ways into the US from China, and Chinese illegal overstay rates are as low as Israelis. Illegal overstay rates is how the US determines how rigorous visa checks are for each country.

China doesn't have exit visas except to ensure that you possess a valid visa to wherever you're going.

I'm surprised how many Americans are worried about Mexican illegal immigration but blind to a major increase of Indians coming to the US.

I just went to see a new dentist because I might be getting an implant, and he was Pakistani. Really nice guy but I think he wants to do a lot more on my teeth than I need done! LOL

Does it feel like having your portrait done?

The report proves that the future of the USA is Asian. It's already happening but expect it to broaden as years go by. Immigrants from Europe are at an all-time low. Trump asking why Norwegians don't immigrate to the US. Easy. They have a better life in Norway.

Nevertheless, immigrants are the lifeblood of the US. Without them, the US would've been a mediocrity long ago.

I strongly believe US immigration should cater to the brightest and talented of the world. Giving them immigration visas and generous stipends. These are the people who will prosper. And if they prosper, the country prospers.

Did EagleEyes ever say he was born here or did he just come over as a teen and start PDF?
I'm sure he's sitting pretty at the high end.

A few years ago me and a friend were talking about a question.

he noted that 3rd world voters can never help their country. Puzzled, I asked, why? It may not be useful but... Never?

he simply said: if a 3rd world politician runs on a platform of negotiating with the US to immigrate as many people there as possible, they'd win an election ez pz. But if they carried out their promise their country would collapse. Hence the vote did not produce an outcome beneficial to the country.
