Denver has taken in more than 1,400 unaccompanied migrant children over the past years, most of them hailing from Honduras, Guatemala and El Salvador, according to data from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services.

The data comes from migrant children sponsors' ZIP codes, obtained by the New York Times through a Freedom of Information Act request and cited by Axios in a report of its own.
