‘Counting on Immigration,’ Part 1 – WBUR
Tagged: demographics, Massachusetts, populationPosted on: November 12th, 2007
Immigration has been changing the demographics of Massachusetts for centuries.
Years after the first immigrants landed on the shores of Plymouth, the dynamic population of new residents continues to help define the state.
Currently, one in six of the Massachusetts population was foreign-born. That’s more than one million of the six and a-half million Bay State residents.
All this week at this time, our topic will be immigration and its effect on the Massachusetts economy. Today, we focus on the impact of our changing demographics.”*
