If nopenoperope can be believed, it was 62% overstays and 38% illegal crossings in 2019. That's the majority, but it's not "literally almost all".

It's hard to measure as those stats are for those who are newly coming and most undocumented immigrants have been here more than 10+ years, also many go under the radar.
That said I did make a mistake, I had read somewhere it was above 90% but on searching again it was referring to "non-central america undocumenteds" not all as a whole. But that doesn't change that hardly anyone comes wandering through a desert and climbing over a wall/fence.
