immigration rate

Newcomer arrival pace

Immigration rate is a demographic measure of how many people move into a country or region relative to its population, typically expressed per thousand residents per year.

A high immigration rate indicates significant population inflow; a low or negative rate (emigration exceeding immigration) suggests people are leaving.

The immigration rate spiked after the policy change.
