An estimated 710,000 Hispanics of Peruvian origin lived in the United States in 2021, according to a Pew Research Center analysis of the U.S. Census Bureau\u2019s American Community Survey. Peruvians in this statistical profile are people who self-identified as Hispanics of Peruvian origin; this includes immigrants from Peru and those who trace their family ancestry to Peru.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Peruvians are the 11th-largest population of Hispanic origin living in the United States, accounting for about 1% of the U.S. Hispanic population in 2021. From 2000 to 2021, the Peruvian-origin population increased 185%, growing from 250,000 to 710,000. At the same time, the Peruvian foreign-born population living in the U.S. grew by 116%, from 190,000 in 2000 to 420,000 in 2021.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
