In the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, the United States was one of the main destinations for Italian emigrants. The largest number of people leaving Italy for the U.S. was registered in the first two decades of the twentieth century, particularly in 1906, before a sharp decline occurred in 1914 due to the First World War.
Nowadays, the U.S. is still one of the main destinations for Italians. More specifically, as of January 2020, four percent of all Italians moving abroad over the last year went to the United States.
