Although emigration from present-day Croatia, particularly from Dalmatia, to the United States has often been discussed in papers dealing with the Croatian diaspora and emigration waves, there has been no well- -documented analysis of the places of origin, ages of the emigrants, or the dates and causes of their emigration. This paper analyses the intensity of emigration from Dalmatia to the USA in the late 19th and early 20th centuries and information about the immigrants by consulting the Ellis Island Database. Methodology included both descriptive and inferential statistics. A database search by ethnicity (using the parameter "Dalmatian") resulted in 24,901 records. The largest group were young adults (aged 15–26), who accounted for 51.8%. The immigrants were predominantly males from rural settlements on the islands or in the hinterland. The most important push factors were the harsh economic situation (brought about by grapevine pests, underdeveloped industry, the lack of arable land etc.) and the intention to avoid conscription into the Austro-Hungarian Army.

1892年至1924年从达尔马提亚（克罗地亚）到美国的移民–艾利斯岛数据库的分析

尽管在有关克罗地亚侨民和移民潮的论文中经常讨论从当今的克罗地亚，特别是从达尔马提亚到美国的移民，但对于出身地点，移民年龄，还没有有据可查的分析，或移民的日期和原因。本文通过查阅Ellis Island数据库，分析了19世纪末和20世纪初从达尔马提亚移民到美国的移民强度以及有关移民的信息。方法论包括描述统计和推论统计。通过种族进行数据库搜索（使用参数“达尔马提亚狗”）导致了24,901条记录。最大的群体是年轻人（15至26岁），占51.8％。移民主要是来自岛屿或内地农村定居点的男性。最重要的推动因素是严峻的经济形势（葡萄虫害，不发达的工业，缺乏耕地等造成的）以及避免征召加入奥匈帝国军队的意图。
