The Amish have been have large families forever. Are they overpopulated? Why are we not overrun by Amish?

The Amish keep themselves to themselves and live in sparsely populated areas so even if the communities grow they wont run over into mainstream society.
Also not every person born Amish remains in Amish society.

... Because the Mexicans... and those of hispanic nationality have defeated them... and instead of Amish.. America has been overpopulated by nearly 90,000,000 hispanics...
...If you will, according to google, on the average, each hispanic family produces 3.6 children.. Which means that those of that nationality won't keep their legs closed... and blame it on not believing in birth control...or being Catholic.. or.. the latter, followed by the former.
In all honesty, I wish our immigration problem dealt with Amish folks.. instead of all these dumb people...that don't seem to understand what "illegal" and "amnesty" truly means.
At least the Amish could teach us a secondary lifestyle if we HAD to choose it (such as a depression) which maybe coming soon with all these illegals..
Besides, the Amish are really intelligent people.

Oh.. and don't call me racist.. My statement involves immigration-- Besides, Mexicans and those of hispanic origin or descent are not races.. they are nationalities..
So, if you must, call me a nationist...

Not all Amish stay on the farm.
