(2011) Census Bureau Reports 21 Percent of Married-Couple Households Have at Least One Foreign-Born Spouse<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n In 2011, 13% of the US was foreign born – but that rose to 15.8% by 2025 (probably decreasing to 15.4% in 2026). That is a 21% increase in the foreign born population. A reasonable guess is the % of married couples having at least one foreign born spouse went up by a similar amount – or 4.5 percentage points – meaning that today, about 25% of all married couple households have at least one foreign born spouse!<\/p>\n\n\n\n There is a political and media meme that the US is anti immigrant but the data says otherwise:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n The data shows the U.S. is\u00a0not\u00a0uniquely “anti-immigrant.” It is one of the world\u2019s most significant migration destinations, both in absolute numbers and in the scale of its immigrant-descended population. The perception gap likely arises from\u00a0political discourse\u00a0and\u00a0policy friction\u00a0rather than actual exclusion.
