Australians Putting Down Roots
Massachusetts is a place Australians choose to live. With 2,821 residents but a work index of 0.82, more Aussies settle here than are sponsored to work here — a sign of a community built on permanent roots, not just visa sponsorship. Still, 1,440 E-3 filings show there's professional opportunity too, led by Ernst & Young. Median E-3 salary: $130k.

Work index = share of E-3 jobs ÷ share of Australian residents. Above 1.0 means more Australians are sponsored to work here than live here. Below 1.0 means more settle here by choice.
E-3 filings are job applications, not individual people — renewals and amendments inflate counts. For population, refer to Census figures. Sources: US Census ACS B05006, US DOL LCA disclosures.
