More and more Americans want to emigrate to live abroad. Why? Seek an answer

According to the statistics of the State Council 20 1 1, there are about 6.4 million Americans living or studying abroad, which is the highest in history.

A Gallup poll of 135 countries found that in recent years, the number of Americans who have left the United States to settle down has risen sharply. In 2009, the number of 2534-year-old young Americans living abroad was 1% and 20 1 1, increasing to 5. 1%. Young people in this age group are considered to be the most dynamic and creative group. In addition, the proportion of Americans aged 3,454 and 5,569 who want to leave the United States has also reached a new high.

The United States is an immigrant country, but now it shows a reverse immigration trend. According to expert analysis, one of the main factors is that Americans with higher education can find jobs with higher income and better prospects abroad. Since the international financial crisis, American college students have suffered the worst job market since the Great Depression in the 1930s as soon as they graduated, facing the blow of economic recession and jobless recovery. According to the report of the US Department of Labor 20 1 1, there are four Americans competing for every new job. This means that new graduates have to compete with job seekers with more work experience. In 20 10, the unemployment rate of young people aged 1624 was 18.4%, which was the highest in 60 years with this indicator. Many college graduates have to do part-time jobs or jobs they don't like.

Young people with higher education also face another kind of pressure: most of them need to repay the loans they owe when they study in universities or graduate schools. Throughout the United States, the total amount of student loans has increased geometrically, and the outstanding loans have reached 65,438+0 trillion US dollars. According to the statistics of 20 1 1, the students who graduated that year are the most in debt among all graduates. Even if these young people can find jobs, their wages are not enough to enable them to pay their basic living expenses and repay their loans in time.

The most attractive areas for young Americans are Asia and Latin America. In Asia, for example, Japan and South Korea have long been easy places for young Americans to find jobs. Wages in these two countries are relatively high, and the cost of living in South Korea is lower than that in many places in the United States. In recent years, China has increasingly become the first choice for young people in the United States, and Viet Nam and Thailand are also places where job opportunities can be provided.
