Preferred term

foreign nationals  

Definition(s)

  • It is difficult to determine the exact number of foreign nationals incarcerated in U.S. prisons and jails, since it is not always easy to differentiate legal and illegal immigrants from U.S. citizens. Also, many state records are not accurate enough to provide precise statistics. [Source: Encyclopedia of Prisons & Correctional Facilities; Foreign Nationals]
