Definition: Estimated percentage of children ages 0-17 living with at least one parent who was born outside of the United States, by legislative district (e.g., in 2016-2020, 47.2% of California children lived with foreign-born parents).
Data Source: U.S. Census Bureau, American Community Survey (Aug. 2022).
Footnote: Data presented are for families with children by birth, marriage, or adoption. The foreign-born population includes naturalized U.S. citizens, lawful permanent residents, temporary migrants, humanitarian migrants, and unauthorized migrants. These estimates are based on a survey of the population and are subject to both sampling and nonsampling error. Because of disruptions to data collection in 2020, American Community Survey estimates for 2016-2020 did not meet statistical quality requirements and have larger than usual margins of error; see Information and Advice on 2020 Federal Data Quality and Use.
