Jan 25

a) the states with the highest numbers of immigrants are also the states with the highest overall populations, and b) that data set is several years old.

Top 10 most populous states in order;

California
Texas
Florida
New York
Pennsylvania
Illinois
Ohio
Georgia
North Carolina
Michigan

Of course large states California or Texas would have substantially more immigrants than a state like Vermont or South Dakota.
