Immigration to the United States has three unmistakable patterns:
A. (1) the number of immigrants has not fluctuated dramatically over time; (2) settlement has been uniform across the country; and (3) the immigrants’ countries of origin have stayed the same over time.
B. (1) the number of immigrants has fluctuated dramatically over time; (2) settlement has not been uniform across the country, but centered in the suburbs; and (3) the immigrants’ religious affiliations have changed over time.
C. (1) the number of immigrant has fluctuated dramatically over time, largely because of government policy changes; (2) settlement has not been uniform across the country but centered in certain regions and cities; and (3) the immigrants’ countries of origin have changed over time.
