German immigrants to the United States tended to settle in cities along the East Coast.

German immigration in the United States was massive and contributed enormously to the country's settlement. Today, the United States has the largest German community in the Americas, which has spread throughout the national territory, currently estimated a population greater than 82 000 000 descendants when in the past there were only thousands. The German-Americans form the largest ethnic group in the country, ahead of the Irish and the English.

None of the German states had colonies of the New World. It was not until the 1670s that the first major groups of German immigrants arrived in the British colonies, mainly in New York and Pennsylvania. Immigration continued in very large numbers during the 19th century, with some 8 million arrivals from Germany.
