The United States Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has estimated that 11.4 million illegal immigrants lived in the United States
in January 2012. According to DHS estimates, "the number of illegal
immigrants peaked around 12 million in 2007 and has gradually declined
to closer to 11 million."[1] The DHS estimate "is in the same ballpark as several independent organizations that study illegal immigration, including Pew Research Center
(11.3 million); the Center for Migration Studies (11 million), which
studies migration and promotes policies that safeguard the rights of
migrants, and the Center for Immigration Studies, which advocates for low levels of legal immigration (11–12 million)."[1]
