La Inmigración

Introducción

 Una de cada diez personas residents en España es extranjera. Es más, aproximadamente 4.6
millones de los 46.7 millones de habitantes son inmigrantes.
 En España, la mayoría de los inmigrantes provienen de Iberoamérica (el 36%); seguido de los
de la Unión Europea (34%) y del norte África (14%).
 El número de extranjeros continuó subiendo anualmente hasta 2014 cuando, a causa de la
crisis económica, el país perdió unas 200,000 personas.
 Los motivos de la inmigración no son solo económicos, no todos los inmigrantes proceden
de países pobres. Algunos vienen para buscar asilo politico, tener un trabajo fijo o refugiarse
en otro país. Pero hay extranjeros procedentes de países prósperos que van a España tras su
jubliación, por ejemplo los británicos y los alemanes.
 La inmigración ha contribuido a atenuar la escasez de oferta de mano de obra.
