Thanks for the work to present that data in a nice and explorable way! It would be awesome to have another column next to "% of Greencards" that says "% of population". One of the reasons India has by far the most green cards is that they also are up there when it comes to total population.

The site says India 40.1% and China 6.7%. According to the CIA factbook, the respective populations are 1.2 billion and 1.3 billion.

  The "% of Green Cards" refers to percent of Green Card applications in database, not against population of the country.

    yes, and that's why I'd love to have another column to figure out if there are any countries that have statistically significant higher/lower Greencards per capita :) It's probably not a super useful metric, but it would be interesting to see
