 The US's newest immigrants are more likely than native-born Americans to have a college degree, per Goldman Sachs
==========

Recent immigrants in the US are more likely to have a college degree compared to native-born Americans, according to a Goldman Sachs report. Many recent immigrants come from South America, Central America, and Mexico, and settled in states like Florida, California, Texas, and New York. They are more likely to work in industries such as construction, professional and business, and accommodation and food services. Recent immigrants earn less than $40,000 a year on average, compared to $54,000 for US-born workers. The number of foreign-born workers in the US has increased, accounting for most of the growth in the labor force.
