In 2015 Pew Research did a study entitled "More Mexicans Leaving Than Coming to the U.S."
"Net Loss of 140,000 from 2009 to 2014; Family Reunification Top Reason for Return."

As many of you that are aware and that follow these types of statistics -- the continued population loss of those born in Mexico that lived in the United States has decreased significantly from 2016 to 2017. This decrease in population has begun to affect the overall number of Foreign-born in metro areas that have had large Mexican-born populations -- the most noticeable (if you believe these estimates to be reasonable & close to accurate) is Los Angeles.
Los Angeles's CSA Foreign-born population went from 5,639,407 in 2016 to an estimated 5,571,129, an overall lost of -68,278.
From 2016 to 2017 the population of people born in Mexico shrank by -303,767. This according to the US Census, American Community Survey 2017, 1-year (sample) estimates.
Other Metro areas that saw their foreign-born population shrink are:
Virginia Beach-Norfolk, VA-NC CSA -712
Tulsa-Muskogee-Bartlesville, OK CSA -752
Kansas City-Overland Park-Kansas City, MO-KS CSA -895
Phoenix-Mesa-Scottsdale, AZ Metro Area -2,581
Albuquerque-Santa Fe-Las Vegas, NM CSA -3,238
Oklahoma City-Shawnee, OK CSA -3,370
Birmingham-Hoover-Talladega, AL CSA -4,842
Cleveland-Akron-Canton, OH CSA -6,374
San Antonio-New Braunfels, TX Metro Area -8,095
Fresno-Madera, CA CSA -8,296
Tucson-Nogales, AZ CSA -11,390
San Diego-Carlsbad, CA Metro Area -20,511
The majority of those like San Diego, Tucson, Fresno, San Antonio, Phoenix, etc. were definitely affected by this exodus as well.
However, in many other cases the increase in those born in Asia, Africa, other parts of Latin America, the Caribbean & to a lesser extent the Middle East offset the out-migration of Mexicans.
Here are some select metro's overall.

Last but not least -- we have no real estimates of how many Puerto Rican's have migrated to US States since Hurricane Maria but I can imagine that it will be much larger than what it was from 2016-2017 as seen below and some select metro's that they've migrated to or left.

These are all based on the US Census, ACS estimates....I would take these with a grain of salt as i have my doubts about places like Philadelphia losing its Puerto Rican-born population by over 11,000 in a year or Orlando's only growing by 851. I think that they are way off here.
What are your thoughts? Could it be that more people especially in the case of those born in Mexico are just less and less likely to report their status or place of birth because of the current political climate? ICE?
