From 1870 until 1930, relatively low numbers of migrants relocated from Oceania to the United States. These numbers fluctuated between 100 and 2,500 migrants per year for most of this period, which is much lower than the rate of migration from other continents to the United States during these decades. Following the Great Depression in 1929, migration rates remained below 300 people per year until the Second World War. From 1943 until 1950, migration from Oceania to the US jumped from 160, to 6,100 migrants per year, and then fell back to just over 500 migrants per year.
