Most immigrants who received green cards in the United States in 2013 were born in Mexico, but here’s a map showing the next most common birth countries and detailing the rapid growth of Asian migration.

In 2013, nearly 1 million people became legal permanent U.S. residents, with 14% having been born in Mexico, a Department of Homeland Security report shows. Once Mexico is stripped out, China is the second most common birth country, accounting for 7.2% of immigrants granted legal status last year. India is third with 6.9%. (Here’s what the map looks like when you include Mexico using 2012 data.)

Half of the immigrants born in India became legal residents through their employer vs. 14% of all immigrants, as demand for high-skilled workers grew, data show. China and India also made up the biggest percentage of international students studying at U.S. colleges and universities, according to 2011 figures from the Institute of International Education.

Asians have surpassed Hispanics to become the fastest-growing ethnic group in the U.S., according to the Census Bureau’s 2012 population analysis. Sixty percent of the Asian population growth came from international migration. Hispanics still remain the second largest ethnic group after non-Hispanic whites.

California saw the highest number of immigrants last year with 191,806. Montana had the lowest figure, 445.

There are about 41 million immigrants, or 13% of the total population, living in the U.S., including naturalized citizens, lawful residents, refugees and asylees, those holding temporary visas and those who are here illegally, according to the Migration Policy Institute. In 1970, there were more than 9 million, or 5% of the population. When Census data was first collected back in 1850, there were 2.2 million immigrants living in the U.S.’s 31 states, constituting 10% of the population.
