Deportation data come from the Transactional Records Access Clearinghouse (TRAC), collected and distributed by the Newhouse School of Public Communications at Syracuse University. The TRAC dataset contains individual-level information on an immigrant's location of arrest, date of deportation, gender, and country of origin. We assume that the origination of local police proceedings is a reasonable proxy for an immigrant's city of residence. We begin to measure immigration enforcement intensity by summing the number of deportations by country of origin and MSA during the Secure Communities era. This differs from prior work that uses potential immigration enforcement only at the MSA level
