do you really mean *renounced* their us citizenship? i think that
number will be very close to zero.  i think it's actually very
difficult (though not impossible) to legally renounce your
citizenship, and would be surprised if it was (keep in mind i'm
completely making this number up) more than a couple of hundred a
year, probably 95% for tax reasons.

if that's what you're really after, then all is well.  but if you just
mean how many leave the states more or less for good, without going
thru the hassle of renunciation, you might reword the question.

in either case i trust a researcher will be able to track down your number for you.

Most retrire back whence the came, but stay American.  Some countries
allow dual citizenship.

It is not impossible to renounce your American citizenship, but I
would doubt that many have done so. As mentioned earlier, many
countries would allow an American citizen, who's a native of that
country, to reside there without him having to renounce their
citizenship.

Thank you for above comments.  I believe that going back to my native
country and retaining my us citizenship is the better option since it
allowes dual citizenship.
