              b.. One in four Californians is an immigrant, a higher proportion than in any other state. 
              c.. Most of California's immigrants are from Latin America or Asia. 
              d.. California is the primary destination for immigrants to the United States. 
              e.. Fewer than half of California's foreign-born residents are citizens, but naturalization rates have increased substantially.

              g.. Many immigrants are highly educated, but most have less education than other residents.
