A decade of immigration to Minnesota

MinnPost has an interactive map cataloguing the country of origin for 130,000 immigrants to Minnesota for the period 2000-2009.

The highest number come from the horn of Africa (Somalia 19,600, Ethiopia 9,600), then Mexico, India, China, and so on.

Only 94 from Norway.  How times have changed.

(Data from Minnesota Demographic Center; I don't know if comparable data have been compiled for other states, but presumably so.)
