This is by design. Apart from refugees, we aren’t letting uneducated people immigrate. Look at South Asians, as a whole they have a higher family income, same with other Asians (Japan, Korea etc.). This is because we favor highly educated immigrants.

Illegal immigration is just that, illegal. Hispanics, especially second generation ones have lower poverty rates, higher homeownership rates, higher education, and higher income.

I left out refugees and a lot of the border crossers are refugees, from wars, cartels, and poverty.
