      I was not aware that the downward trend started so early. Is it because universities became more expensive?

      But don’t forget. They are not some dirty economical migrants to exploit the social system of free/cheap education and affordable healthcare, they are a special case – the noble expats.

      You know the people fleeing America right now *aren’t* the MAGA jerks, right?

      Quick, someone copy all the data off their computers and phones when they enter EU borders – we wouldn’t want them to feel like they aren’t at home…

      And they will go around calling themselves „expats“ lmao. They are immigrants just like everyone else.

      I mean, the numbers have been more or less the same for roughly two decades now.

      Seriously annoys me that the colors are mixed up. EU should be blue and Trumpistan red.

      A friend of the family emigrated to England from Texas. Took her around 10 years to become a UK citizen. I attended her wedding in Lymington a few years ago.

      Once you fall in love with a place, and you have the will, the resources, and the talent, you make it happen. The jingo in me says that’s an American story but I know it’s a human story and people all over the world do it all the time.

      As a European I wouldn’t travel to the US, short or long term, even if they paid me!

      I live in a city in the EU that hosts a lot of international workers. I have a lot of friends from specifically India and Brazil. I always thought that we (Europeans, specifically northern, and US) have similar culture and ideas. But Jesus, ppl from the US are so fucking weird when you meet them in person. In my experience Brazilians are much more culturally close to my country than most US people I’ve met.

      Well yeah, the visa most Europeans used to get to the US, the H1B, for skilled professionals, has been entirely broken since 2020.

      What was previously a case of just getting an employer to sponsor you, is now getting an employer to sponsor you for a 20% chance of success. Many decent US employers have pulled out of the scheme & the ones still using it seem to only want Indians.

      Look guys, I’m happy to dunk on the USA’s government and the MAGA morons but these people aren’t them so we should be happy to host people from a rather similar culture and hopefully they can take some lessons and use positive experiences to maybe one day the USA can become what they once were

      If it’s any consolation I imagine it’s only the sane folks who are wanting to leave.

      – Today more Americans come to (stay?) in Europe than Europeans go to (stay?) in the US.

      asking for a friend… a lot of friends.

      – Gosh, it’s like 1930s Europe – escaping F____ for a better, safer future. Who knew!

      I suspect people here are under the assumption that there is a sudden influx of Americans coming to Europe, but you can see that this is a long-term trend. It is not a sudden thing that would be caused by Trump.

      The news here is mostly that Europeans don’t come to the US anymore and there is a lack of desire of doing that. Also, US has made immigration much more difficult, I think.

      I believe that Americans who want to leave US are smart, compassionate and respect European values. For those of you I say welcome!

      Why is it comparing Green Cards to First-time Residents permits? A Green Card is a permanent resident card whereas a First-time residents permit is not. These aren’t comparable. You would have to add in all the Europeans who go to the U.S for temporary work visa’s, student visas, and other temporary reasons in order for this to make sense.

      A green card holder is one step away from citizenship. At that point you only need to be in the U.S for 30 months out of 5 years to apply and become a citizen.

      That’s digital nomads though, they come here and can afford living in central locations in major towns thus increasing the rents and they don’t even pay their taxes in Europe, so it’s not something to celebrate.
