I am looking for current statistics and data on refugees in Charlotte. Do you have any data I can reproduce?
Thank You

It depends on what statistics and data you want. Maybe start by asking Charlotte-based refugee resettlement agencies to give you the specific statistics and data you are looking for. Also, the ORR doesn’t have info by city but they do by state. They have fiscal year state profiles, the most recent being fy2007-09. Scroll down to North Carolina.
http://www.acf.hhs.gov/programs/orr/data/StateProfiles07-09.pdf
Another chart shows you the countries the refugees arriving in your state came from.
