The number of illegal immigrants in the United States may be as high as 20 million people, almost double the official estimates of 11.1 million of the March 2005 Current Population Survey and 11.5 millionâ12 million by the Pew Hispanic Center (Fact Sheet, April 5, 2006).
The nationâs population of illegal immigrants, which more than tripled, to 12.2 million, between 1990 and 2007, has dropped by about 1 million, according to demographers at the Pew Research Center. A key â but largely overlooked â sign of these ebbing flows is the changing makeup of the undocumented population.
