Interesting how the results totally change once we look at where people from these countries actually move to and make their primary residence.
-snipped-
These two things are completely different dimensions. Yours doesn't say where people actually are moving to. Neither does mine, however I didn't hint at the notion. What I posted shows where people today are looking for real estate it could be for moving here, it could be for foreign investment in real estate. In either case it is information that is happening today.
What you just posted are total numbers so someone that came to San Francisco or Miami or Houston or anywhere else in 1950 or 1940 or any other year is still included in the numbers your posted as long as they're still alive.

Id there no data on numbers born in middle east countries, vietnam, African countries or Argentina?
This is a very interesting set of data. How would an expat from say France to Houston but counted? Is that a primary residence for them, I assume it is. Great research!
Here is another interesting article - it doesn't go into states but it does have some other interesting things like for all those saying how lowly Hispanics are compared to Asians. Hispanics have much lower rate of Bachelor's Degrees than Asians, largely because of higher numbers of illegal immigrants that have difficult attending schools. Even with that 12% of South Americans and 12% of Asians are impoverished. Caribbean is 17% and Mexican is the worst at 24%. Between 1990 and 2008 California had less increase in foreign born than Florida and both had less increase in foreign born than Texas.
This by the US Census, after the most recent census seems to agree. It also shows that while all 3 still have high percentages of foreign born the time after 2005 has seen all 3 decrease with Cali seeing a much higher decrease in foreign born. I'm guessing this is in part due to cost of living in Cali now, race relations in "fly-over" states slowly improving, and immigration laws in various states.
13.3% of California's foreign born arrived since 2005.
17% of Florida's foreign born arrived since 2005.
18.1% of Texas' foreign born arrived since 2005. http://www.census.gov/prod/2011pubs/acsbr10-16.pdf

Huh? This is doublespeak.
The list I put has a people born in foreign countries and the places in the US they now live in.

This is true, but there has been a huge migration from all over Europe and Asia to the Bay Area in the past 20 years specifically to work in technology as even entire companies or corporate division relocate to Silicon Valley from overseas--most of them work with corporate relocation services that dont go on trulia. lol
Im sure Miami attracts wealthy Latin Americans, but you obviously have very little idea of the fact that the Bay Area and its half trillion dollar economic juggernaut actually causes people to move there for work.

18.1% of Texas' foreign born arrived since 2005. http://www.census.gov/prod/2011pubs/acsbr10-16.pdf
In other words, 2005-2010
California +1,349,000
Texas +749,000
Florida +621,000
So now that California has 10 MILLION FOREIGN BORN RESIDENTS, I dont mind spreading the wealth. lol
