Before making the decision to immigrate to the United States, it is important to consider the average salaries for undocumented workers – that is, those who do not have the residence permit– which are managed in the main cities.
As a note from the New York newspaper tells us, according to a study by the New York Center for Migration Studies undocumented foreign workers have the lowest wages and the most precarious working conditions.
The example cited in that note: Immigrant construction workers who have a residence permit earn about $ 40,400 annually; while undocumented immigrants receive only $ 30,100 for the same period.
They also face more vulnerable conditions and lower overtime pay.

Also keep in mind that salaries change based on each city or state.
On this point, the As website has published an analysis by the consultancy firm Go Banking Rates which highlights the differences between some of the American cities with a greater Latin presence and abundant job offers.
A few examples
– Chicago, Ill.
The median income is US $ 52,497 per year.
– Los Angeles California
Median salaries are around $ 54,501.
– San Francisco, California
The salaries of workers with an average qualification are around US $ 96,265.
– Miami, Florida
The median annual income is US $ 33,999.
An essential point to keep in mind is that the cities that offer the highest salaries also have high living costs.
