The impact of Haitian migration into the United States has become a top 2024 political issue, after former President Trump put the issue into the spotlight.
The influx of Haitian migrants into the U.S. has become a major political issue in recent months, as both former President Trump and Sen. J.D. Vance repeated claims about the impact they are having on towns like Springfield, Ohio. It has become a political issue in part due to the Biden administration’s parole processes for four nationalities -- Cuba, Haiti, Nicaragua and Venezuela.
How many Haitian immigrants are in the U.S.? There are approximately 1,152,604 Haitian immigrants residing in the US according to the U.S. Census Bureau’s 2023 American Community Survey . That is up from nearly 731,000 Haitian immigrants in 2022. Where are they living? Florida has the largest Haitian population in the U.S., at about 511,621 individuals, while New York's population is a distant 2nd with 196,698 individuals. Massachusetts has 72,677 and New Jersey has 69,069.
