While it was interesting and filled with lots of information it was too overwhelming to get any information quickly. So narrowed search to just Mexican immigration so did a search which led us to an article in the Wall St. Journal entitled Mexican Immigration to US Reverses. While the article was interesting wanted to go to the source for the information. This led to an article from PEW research Center Hispanic Trends entitled More Mexicans Leaving Than Coming to the U.S. We are familiar with this source and feel it is a reputable source. Will now go to the many references listed in the report.

Fresh searches are better always also because we don't use so much many of the data source and we forgot about them and searching again brings them back. <br /><br />Today, listened the phrase "See one, do one, teach one" And that is totally SearchReSearch way.

With the first, couldn't phrase it good to get results in second, just data no visualization. PEW links are very interesting too. <br /><br />Did you know any of the sources mentioned here before the Challenge? I only knew BBVA and World Bank but Pew (http://www.pewresearch.org/about/)I visited this to learn more about them, UNHCR and the International Organization for Migration are new.

An excess of persons entering the country is referred to as net immigration (e.g., 3.56 migrants/1,000 population); an excess of persons leaving the country as net emigration (e.g., -9.26 migrants/1,000 population). The net migration rate indicates the contribution of migration to the overall level of population change. The net migration rate does not distinguish between economic migrants, refugees, and other types of migrants nor does it distinguish between lawful migrants and undocumented migrants."</i>remmijhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17985809654574916217noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4953008377950396317.post-11344992510720114002016-02-17T10:25:09.835-08:002016-02-17T10:25:09.835-08:00A large number of infographics and data visualizat...A large number of infographics and data visualizations: The Refugee Crisis through the eyes of Data Visualization: http://blog.webkid.io/refugee-crisis-visualization-collection/Hanshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16362447090339269962noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4953008377950396317.post-84980406024362493672016-02-17T07:36:56.327-08:002016-02-17T07:36:56.327-08:00Hello Dan, I live in the the Netherlands, and refu...Hello Dan, I live in the the Netherlands, and refugees is an hot item here.
