A new analysis of migration patterns shows a loss of Illinois residents has been largely offset by incoming immigrants. The figures, from the U.S. Census Bureau and Illinois Department of Revenue, show the state is becoming less rural, more educated, more foreign-born and higher-paid.

Nearly an equal number are Asian or Pacific Islanders. 63,000 of the new arrivals were young adults 18 to 24.
