@mho @dataisbeautiful Australia had 8,110,501 immigrants in 2024? Am I misreading it somehow?

Edit: It's "immigrant stocks", not the number of people who immigrated in that year.

Yes, you're right. Like the title says: "people from one country living in another country".

Was my post misleading, or is there something on the site misleading? I'm happy to correct it.

@mho @dataisbeautiful It's fine, I was just looking at the pictures without reading the title.

@mho @dataisbeautiful I'm surprised how few immigrants there are in Brazil and Argentina.

@mho @dataisbeautiful Very nice, easy to use. Some suggestions: the arrow heads often are too big and obscure the destination countries when they are small. On Firefox hovering over a country name in the lists shows both the regular tooltip and the CSS-formatted one, overlapping. The map projection used is a bit stretched it seems.

Fiexed and fixed.

I chose the projection, because it fills a monitor quite good but is true to land area.
