Content: The number of expats has more than doubled in the last fifteen years — a number growing faster than the rate of the U.S. population itself. After the 2016 U.S. Presidential election many Americans said that they would leave the country, though no figures exist to show whether a significant up-tick has occurred. Where are people going? So where are these American expats going? According to the Association of American Residents Overseas (AARO), US expats can be found in more than 160 countries: 40% opt for the Western hemisphere — Canada, Central and South America. 26% move to Europe. 14% head to East Asia and the Pacific — think Australia and New Zealand as well as China and Japan. 14% head to the Middle East. 3% travel to Central or South Asia.
