le=”text-align: justify; “>The rate of Mexican immigration to the US has stalled or maybe even gone into reverse, an analysis shows, ending a four-decade-long trend, BBC reports.
A Pew Hispanic Center study shows immigration began to slow five years ago and may have reversed by 2010.
Economic factors, increased border control, and lower Mexican birth rates were all cited as factors.
More than 12 million migrants entered the US from Mexico since 1970, more than half legally, the report says.
“Looking back over the entire span of US history, no country has ever seen as many of its people immigrate to this country as Mexico has in the past four decades,” the report’s authors note.
