Immigrants make up more than a third of upstate New York's physicians and other physical scientists, but about 45,000 immigrants are also undocumented, according to a report released Monday.
In 2005, about 340,000 immigrants lived in upstate New York -- 5 percent of the region's total population, according to findings by the Fiscal Policy Institute. It's a nonpartisan research organization with offices in Latham and New York City.
On a statewide level, immigrants contributed $229 billion to the economy in 2006, amounting to 22 percent of New York's gross domestic product, according to the report. More than 20 percent of the state's population is foreign-born.
