News of Donald Trump getting elected the 47th President of America has evoked two different emotions in the American population. The right-wing populists, who strongly oppose immigration, cheered on and celebrated the new President while the Democrats started to look into new opportunities to migrate themselves.

Since the announcement of Trump’s victory, the overall volume of Google searches has soared, increasing by 1514 percent, VisaGuide.World reports.

Between November 5 and November 6, traffic for “immigration” related pages on VisaGuide.World has increased by 338 percent, with Americans seeking which are the easiest countries to move to from the USA.

Moreover, pages with content for specific countries are also drawing significant attention:

Similarly, Germany-Visa.org experienced a 336 percent increase in traffic for pages related to immigration, with particular interest in Germany’s Opportunity Card (Chancenkarte).

The data reveals that Google searches in the US for migration topics are about 15 times higher than one week before the elections (Wednesday, October 30).

The most searched term during this period was “moving to New Zealand from the US,” with users searching for this keyword 7600 percent or 76 times higher than they did before Trump won the elections.

“Moving to Germany from the US” was 42 times more searched this last week, while searches for “Moving to the Netherlands” were up by 3233 percent.

Here are some other highly searched keywords by American users since the Republicans won the elections:

“How to move to Europe”: +1566 percent

“Immigrate to New Zealand”: +1566 percent

Top Destinations Americans Are Considering for Relocation

Based on Google Analytics data, Americans’ most searched countries for relocation are as follows:

The reasons these countries have emerged as top destinations can vary; Canada is highly searched for due to its geographical proximity and cultural similarities, while New Zealand comes up on this list thanks to its high quality of life.

Countries like the United Kingdom and Australia are also top destinations. The fact that these are English-speaking countries could also play a role in Americans’ decisions.

In addition, Americans with a vision to start fresh could look more into European destinations such as Portugal. The country is perceived as friendly for Americans, has affordable costs, and a warm climate.

Germany, on the other hand, could be a top pick for Americans seeking more education and employment opportunities as well as a high quality of life.

Most people don’t have a path to immigrate to other countries. They’ll find out they can’t and won’t leave the US.

Looking to move abroad =/ moving abroad. While there could be a bit more people moving abroad those are people who were planning for some time already and this election is just one of many other reasons to push them. People exploring alternatives in such short time and for such single reason will seek primarily a country who's politics (Democratic Party) align with them and those aren't many, and among them they have to found an house and infrastructure which satisfies them. There is a very big entry barrier.

Tldr: looking is free (or almost so), actually moving presents a big monetary and psychological barrier. The interest will quickly die in the following weeks.

Happens like every election cycle. It will pass and the flow of Americans in and out of the country will return to normal levels.
