is this sentence correct?

HI everyone,
Could someone help me check whether the following sentence is grammatically correct? And if not, advise on how to rephrase it?

20% of people moved to the US to earn money
20% of people moved to the US to gain life experience

So: The same amount of people moved to the US to earn money as to gain life experience.

For some reason this looks weird to me, but i can't think of any other way of phrasing it...
Your help is appreciated!
Thanks in advance
TT

This sounds fine to me- The percentage of people who moved to the US to earn money is same as the percentage went there to gain life experience.
