With 1.4 million undocumented people, Southern California will change as deportations ramp up

Approximately 1 in 9 people without full legal authority to live in the U.S. are in LA, Orange, Riverside and San Bernardino counties

As federal agencies start to deliver on President Donald Trump’s long-promised crackdown on immigration, ramping up deportation quotas and conducting raids in places as diverse as Chicago and Bakersfield, it’s worth looking at two numbers that show why Southern California is the unofficial capital of Undocumented America.

The first is this: 13.7 million. That’s how many people are estimated to be living in the United States without full legal authority to do so.

The second is this: 1.44 million. That’s how many unauthorized folks reside in Los Angeles, Orange, Riverside or San Bernardino counties, according to estimates from the Migration Policy Institute, a non-partisan group that tracks immigration issues.

There are a lot of other numbers to consider, too; more than half (57%) of local unauthorized immigrants have been here 15 years or longer; about 4 in 10 live in a family with at least one American citizen; about 1 in 5 owns a home.

But the bottom line is clear: Nearly 1 out of every 9 people living in the United States illegally resides in the four-county region most Southern Californians call home.

San Diego migrant shelter closes after decrease in residents in Trump term

Not a single new migrant arrived at the shelter after Trump took office.

Hayden Cunningham  |  Feb 15, 2025

A migrant shelter in San Diego is shutting down after receiving no new arrivals following the Trump administration’s termination of the CBP One app on Inauguration Day.

The Jewish Family Service of San Diego, which has operated a regional migrant shelter for over six years, announced it will close its facility and lay off more than 100 employees due to “changes in federal funding and policy” under the new administration. In a statement, the organization said its transition shelter, which is used to provide medical screenings, food, legal assistance, and travel coordination, has not received a single migrant since President Donald Trump’s inauguration day, according to a report by the San Diego Union-Tribune.

The lack of new migrants coincides with the Trump administration’s ending of the CBP One app. The app, originally designed for trade and commercial purposes, was repurposed under the Biden administration to allow migrants to schedule asylum interviews at ports of entry and be released into the US while awaiting updates on their claims.

The organization also noted that it has not received any of the $22 million it was awarded last year under the Federal Emergency Management Agency’s (FEMA) Shelter and Services Program.  .  .  .
