Fairlie, March 2011 • …Immigrants were more than twice as likely to start businesses each month than were the native-born in 2010. The immigrant rate of entrepreneurial activity increased sharply, from 0.51 percent in 2009 to 0.62 percent in 2010, further widening the gap between immigrant and native-born rates. The native-born rate is 0.28 percent... • …entrepreneurial activity rate among Latinos increased from 0.46 percent in 2009 to 0.56 percent in 2010, reaching the highest level over the past decade and a half... • …Asian entrepreneurial activity rate also increased substantially in 2010 (from 0.31 percent to 0.37 percent) • …African-American and non-Latino white entrepreneurial activity rates decreased from 2009 to 2010 • Over the past decade and a half, Latinos, Asians, immigrants, and the oldest age group (ages fifty-five to sixty-four) experienced rising shares of all new entrepreneurs, partly because of rising rates of entrepreneurship, but also because of increasing populations.
