The Dashboard

Track Americans abroad across 99 countries, and growing.

The American Emigration Revue maintains the first public dashboard of where US citizens live, move and naturalize, built strictly from official government data. Stocks, flows, naturalizations, permits, who the Americans are, and where in each country they settle. Every view shareable as a link, every chart exportable, every figure stamped with its source and edition.

What's inside the dashboard

One queryable view of a population no government counts.

We don't estimate. We don't model. The dashboard compiles what host countries themselves publish about their US-citizen residents, and shows you exactly where the record is strong and where it goes dark.

01

The 99-country dashboard

Host-country statistics and US federal series side by side: residency permits, visas, naturalizations and census records, queryable by country and year. Every filtered view has a stable URL you can share or bookmark.

02

Country stories, not just tables

Where Americans settle inside a country: São Paulo alone holds 36.7% of Brazil's registered US citizens. Who they are: sex and age structure across 27 European countries. How they hold status: visa categories and their trends since 2014.

03

Transparency you can audit

Every country graded 0 to 5 on what it actually publishes. Every metric carries a comparability rating and a data-as-of edition stamp. Every chart names the government source it draws from.

04

Built to be cited

Per-chart CSV downloads with source and vintage headers, a view-as-table toggle on every figure, CC BY 4.0 licensing, and the weekly citation-ready brief, made for journalists, researchers and institutions.
