While federal action on immigration faces an uncertain future, states, cities and suburban municipalities craft their own responses to immigration. TwentyFirstCentury Gateways, focuses on the fastestgrowing immigrant populations in metropolitan areas with previously low levels of immigrationplaces such as Atlanta, Austin, Charlotte, DallasFort Worth, MinneapolisSt. Paul, Phoenix, Portland, Sacramento, and Washington, D.C. These places are typical of the newest, largest immigrant gateways to America, characterized by postWWII growth, recent burgeoning immigrant populations, and predominantly suburban settlement.More immigrants, both legal and undocumented, arrived in the United States during the 1990s than in any other decade on record. That growth has continued more slowly since the Great Recession; nonetheless the U.S. immigrant population has doubled since 1990. Many immigrants continued to move into traditional urban centers such as New York, Chicago, and Los Angeles, but burgeoning numbers were attracted by the economic and housing opportunities of fastgrowing metropolitan areas and their largely suburban settings. The pace of change in this new geography of immigration has presented many local areas with challengessocial, fiscal, and political.Edited by Audrey Singer, Susan W. Hardwick, and Caroline B. Brettell, TwentyFirstCentury Gateways provides indepth, comparative analysis of immigration trends and local policy responses in America's newest gateways. The case examples by a group of leading multidisciplinary immigration scholars explore the challenges of integrating newcomers in the specific gateways, as well as their impact on suburban infrastructure such as housing, transportation, schools, health care, economic development, and public safety.The changes and trends dissected in this book present a critically important understanding of the reshaping of the United States today and the future impact of immigration, vital as the nation and metropolitan areas face changes to immigration policy.
