Italy is home to an estimated 1 million immigrants from Africa. Many of the immigrants are from North Africa, including Morocco, Tunisia, Egypt, Libya, and Algeria, and totaled 647,000 documented residents in 2010. West Africans from Nigeria, Senegal, and Ghana make up the rest of the immigrant population, with about 337,000 in registered immigrants. Africans have found it easier to settle in to life in Italy by clustering around Rome, Palermo, Milan, Turin, and Bologna.
