Abstract: The two nations which have been the recipients of the largest number of Latin American immigrants in the past quarter century are the United States and Spain. This talk will compare the basic characteristics of these two groups of Latin American born immigrants, as seen in two surveys of these populations carried out in 2007. The primary sources for this analysis will be the US Census Bureau’s American Community Survey of 2007, and Spain’s Instituto Nacional de Estadística “Encuesta Nacional de Inmigrantes 2007. The similarities and differences in the origin, demographic and socio-economic characteristics of these two migration streams are examined as well as the patterns of immigrant integration in the two receiving countries.
