How many non American born people do you think there are in Stl? (ball park estimate) I think it would be cool to be immersed/exsposed to some diverse backgrounds and maybe meet some people that hail from outside of America. I know there's the Hill, Bevo, (probably much many other neighborhoods than I'd know) and that Dogtown has (after the kerry patch) been a place of Irish American ancestry. But what about people who still have an Irish brogue? Or anyone of Scottish or English background? Middle East or Scandinavian. I don't know. We all have multicultured backgrounds but just wondered how many new settlers old Louie was getting these days.

Visiting Bosnia via St. Louis | Travel | Smithsonian Magazine

Bosnians have really made St. Louis home. There is also a Vietnamese community here. East Asians live here too. I also know of many Mexican immigrants who work in restaurant kitchens and at physical labor. I don't have statistics, but the Post is always running articles about immigrants who have made it good here.

The agency that does a lot of the heavy lifting regarding getting immigrants going in our area is the International Institute. Welcome to the International Institute of St. Louis You can get a sense of what they do on their website, although the nationalities they work with are not specified.
