Gallup Poll: 800 Million People Want to Migrate to U.S. or Europe
Roughly 800 million people worldwide want to migrate into homes and jobs in America or Europe, according to a Gallup survey announced on January 31.
“In 2021, 16% of adults worldwide — which projects to almost 900 million people — said they would like to leave their own country permanently,” Gallup reported.
“Just under one in five potential migrants (18%) — or about 160 million adults worldwide — named the U.S. as their desired future residence,” the report said. That inflow would add one migrant for every employee in the United States.
Their migration would spike investor profits — but would also slash wages and spike housing costs for hundreds of millions of Americans and Europeans. That huge wealth shift would also make it much harder for U.S. and European families to buy homes and have children.
The 16 percent who want to migrate has jumped up from 12 percent — or 750 million — in 2018.
The new figures are based on 2021 interviews with nearly 127,000 adults in 122 countries, Gallup reported.
