I just used migration assistant and migrated from an old Imac to a new one, but I don't see the documents folder where all my word and other files are organized. I see an icloud documents folder, but I don't have many files in there. Most of my work is on my old imac in a documents folder that appears not to have migrated.
iMac 27″, macOS 10.15
The proper time and way to migrate to a new iMac, is during the initial setup. If you migrated to the new iMac after the initial setup, then your old user data is most likely in a second user account.
To check for two user accounts, go to Apple > System Preferences > Users & Groups and look to see if both user accounts are listed there. Or optionally go to Apple > Log Out and see if you are presented with two user accounts at login.

Thank you. That solved it. Very helpful.
Log out of your user account and you will find a new account, it’s in there.
You're welcome.
My Imac documents folder did not migrate to to my new imac
