Immigration over Time
The number of immigrants in Illinois is at an all-time high, and has risen steadily since
the 1960s, when federal immigration laws were substantially revised.
The foreign-born percent of the Illinois population has also been rising since the
1960s, yet immigrants are a much smaller share of the state’s population then they
were a century ago.

Residence of Immigrants in Illinois
Residence of Foreign Born
The collar counties are
experiencing the fastest growth
in immigrant population. The
foreign born have risen in
number by more than 200
percent in Kane, Lake, McHenry
and Will counties since 1990.
The collar counties are home to
483,000 immigrants. In the city
of Chicago, however, the number
of foreign born declined by more
than 5% since the year 2000.

Key Measures of Integration
With its long history of immigration, a key question for Illinois is the extent
to which immigrant populations are integrating into society. Three key
measures of immigrant integration are citizenship, income and education.
10
Naturalization Rates
Naturalization is the voluntary process by
which legal immigrants become U.S. citizens.
The percent of immigrants who are
naturalized is an important indicator of
immigrant integration.
Naturalization rates of Illinois immigrants
have risen since the year 2000, after a
decline during the 1990s.* About 44 percent
of immigrants are U.S. citizens.
Naturalization rates are highest among longestablished groups from Europe, and lowest
among the Mexican population.

documented and undocumented.
11
Poverty Rates
Poverty among immigrants in Illinois has
declined slightly since 1990. About 12.9
percent of immigrants are below the
poverty level.
Among individual groups, current poverty
rates are highest among persons from
Mexico (17.3%), the Ukraine (14.6%) and
Korea (13.2%).
Poverty rates among natives have risen
since 1990, from 11.7 percent in that year
to 11.9 percent in 2005-2009.

Educational Attainment
Educational levels of Illinois immigrants have risen steadily in the last two decades.
In 1990 about 42 percent of immigrants did not have a high school degree, but by
2005-2009 that number had fallen to 30 percent.
Similarly, the percent of the foreign born with a bachelors degree rose from 21 to
28 percent between 1990 and 2007.

2005-2009
These maps tell another story of metro Chicago immigration. Each dot
represents the top 100 census tracts in terms of recent immigrants. As may
be seen, new immigrants to metro Chicago increasingly arrive in the suburbs
and in an increasingly dispersed set of neighborhoods in the region.
Map details are :
• 1990: top 100 tracts in number of immigrants who arrived in 1985-1990
• 2000: top 100 tracts in number of immigrants who arrived in 1995-2000
• 2005-2009: top 100 tracts in number of immigrants who arrived since 2000

Top 10 Census Tracts of New Immigrant
Arrivals to Metro Chicago
This map displays the top ten
census tracts in 2005-2009 in
number of recent arrivals to
the U.S., i.e., immigrants who
came to the U.S. since 2000.
These port-of-entry areas are
significant for where they are
– on the North Side of Chicago
and in the northern Cook
County suburbs – and where
they are not – they do not
include traditional immigrant
neighborhoods on Chicago’s
South Side such as the Lower
West Side or South Lawndale.
New arrivals are immigrants who came to the U.S. since the year 2000.

Impact in Legislative Districts
As immigrant communities move to the suburbs they play an
increasing role in suburban legislative districts. The maps below
highlight this movement of immigrants to districts in DuPage and Kane
counties.
