What happened

Well supportedReported by 5 independent outlets

The Associated Press obtained and analyzed federal records detailing the movement of millions of migrants who crossed the Mexican border over the last decade. The analysis, which covered the period from fall 2018 to summer 2025, tracked where these individuals were released in the United States. The records showed that some migrants, such as Venezuelans, were moving to smaller communities outside of traditional hubs like Miami, seeking better job opportunities and lower housing costs.
