Illegal Immigrants Cost the State of California $30.29 Billion Annually[/url]
Illegal immigrants and their children cost the State of California roughly $30.29 billion per year in net costs. This works out to $7,352 per illegal alien, or ~17.7 percent of California’s state budget.
Of course, many of these costs are absorbed by local jurisdictions and the federal government, but the drain on the State of California remains significant. As such, the question is no longer whether California ought to allow illegal immigration—it’s whether the State can afford it.
Illegal immigration is expensive: two recent studies from the Federation for American Immigration Reform and the National Economics Editorial peg the annual cost of illegal immigration to America between $135 and $140 billion. And of all the states, California bears the largest burden due to its sizable illegal population.
