While Hispanics currently make up the largest piece of the American immigrant population, 47% in 2015, with Asians at a distant second with 26%, Pew projections see a swap coming.
The report projects that the Asian immigrant population will overtake the Hispanic population by 2055, reaching 38% in 2065 compared to a 31% Hispanic population.
This shouldn't come as a surprise: Asian immigrants have been immigrating to the states in bigger numbers than Hispanics for years now.
In 2008, Asian immigrants overtook Central and Southern Americans in terms of arrivals in the US within the past year.
Asian immigrants were also the most favored incoming immigrant group, according to an opinion poll in the same study. 47 percent of respondents felt that Asian immigrants had a mostly positive impact on American society
