That’s millions by year and my statistic is for a month. Looks like your statistic shows 170k encounters for the most recent month which is what we should compare to the 38k detained.
That’s roughly just under a quarter of encounters getting detained. Being encountered but not detained doesn’t mean they are let into the US. They get sent back. Detaining people costs more money than sending people back.
