Immigration Research
Immigrant Fresno offers immigration research findings and resources, including those focusing on Fresno, the Central Valley, California or the United States.
We value research in order to allow society, policy makers and community leaders to make decisions based on their access to the highest quality information available.
We encourage visitors to consult the research materials uploaded to this website as well as the links to other valuable resources that can shed further light into the status of immigrants in the Central Valley or at the state, national or international level.
For your convenience, we have uploaded a series of reports from several of the best research centers in the state and the nation.
