Original Note:
This is a number of border patrol encounters, not of new illegal immigrants residing in the US. The number of encounters has increased over the past two decades partly due to increased enforcement. DHS estimates that the observed apprehension rate was over 80% as of 2021. https://www.cbp.gov/document/stats/nationwide-encounters https://www.dhs.gov/sites/default/files/2023-07/2023_0703_plcy_fiscal_year_2022_border_security_metrics_report_2021_data.pdf
