It is often said that the United States is a nation of newcomers. Typically characterized as individuals born in another country, millions of newcomers (also known as immigrants) have settled in the U.S. over the last several hundred years. Newcomers come to the U.S. for various reasons, including students, permanent residents, temporary workers and refugees.
