Of 2,600 persons, 31.3 per cent have been in the United States under five years; 24.7 per cent have been here from five to nine years; 11.5 per cent from ten to fourteen years; 8.9 per cent from fifteen to nineteen years, and 23.5 per cent have been here twenty years or over. The greatest proportion of Russians and South Italians have been in the United States under five years and the greater proportion of Lithuanians, Magyars, Poles, and Ruthenians have been here under ten years, while the greater proportion of Slovaks have been here under fifteen years; by contrast, by far the largest proportion of Germans and English have been here twenty years or over and the greater proportion of the Irish report a residence in this country of over fifteen years.

The table and accompanying chart next presented set forth the same data as the one which follows it, but in a more summary form, the proportions in the different residence groups up to five years being brought together in one group.

This table presents returns from 4,065 persons, of whom 1.6 per cent have been in the United States under one year; 1.9 per cent have been here one year; 9.2 per cent have been here two years; 7.8 per cent, three years; 6.5 per cent, four years; 24.5 per cent, five to nine years; 11.4 per cent, from ten to fourteen years; 10.7 per cent, from fifteen to nineteen years; and 26.4 per cent have been here twenty years or over. No Croatians or Germans, less than 1 per cent of Magyars and English, and less than 5 per cent of every other race have been in this country under one year; less than 5 per cent of each race have been in the country only one year; but comparatively large numbers of South Italians, Russians, Lithuanians, and Croatians have been here but two years. Also a fair proportion of all races excepting the German, English, and Irish are shown to have resided here three years. Less than 10 per cent of all races excepting Magyar and South Italian have been here four years, but comparatively large figures are shown for each race excepting the English, German, and Irish in the column designating those who have lived here from five to nine years. Small proportions of English and German are shown to have a residence of from ten to fourteen years, while the Russians show a comparatively large proportion of such residence. The Germans show 13.7 per cent, and the South Italians 1.9 per cent, who have lived here from fifteen to nineteen years. About 70 per cent of Germans and English, 47 per cent of Irish, 19.1 per cent of Slovaks, 16.8 per cent of Magyars, have lived in the United States twenty years or over, while the remaining races show less than 6 per cent to have resided here a similar period.

The last table presented in this connection shows, by race of individual, the percentage of foreign-born persons who had been in the United States each specified number of years.
