The Pew Research Center has a new,
fascinating study that shows the destination of H-1B workers. The most surprising result is that the Bay Area
attracts fewer H-1B workers than one might expect.
From the study:
The San Jose, California, metro area, home of Silicon Valley,
trailed the leading metro area on these measures, despite being home to some of
the world’s most famous technology companies. The San Jose metro area had
22,200 H-1B approvals from fiscal 2010 to 2016, which amounted to two approvals
per 100 workers.
The average H-1B worker earns
$80,600, which is considerably higher than the average college-educated American,
who earns $72,376. In many Midwestern cities, it is impossible to make the case that H-1B workers are driving down salaries
or that H-1B workers are saturating the supply of workers.

In all of these metropolitan areas,
there are only 1 or 2 H-1B workers per 1,000 US workers, which is a minuscule percentage
of the workforce. As usual, the bluster
around the H-1B program pales in comparison to the actual facts.
