Will a written warning ticket (for jaywalking) show up on driving records/backgrnd checks/empl. verifications?

I got this warning ticket for jaywalking in Pasadena, CA at 2 AM on a Saturday morning when the streets were completely deserted. The officer asked for my ID and issued the warning ticket. The ticket says 'NO COURT, Warning Only'. I thanked the officer for letting me go only with a warning.

1) Will the PD report it to the DMV or other agencies and eventually show up in background checks (employment/housing/credit) in the future?

2) How long is a written warning retained on PD files?

3) What are the long term impacts for a an individual with no prior issues with the law whatsoever? Is this serious. Thank you in advance. (I am new here, I love USA. Since this is my first I am a little shaken by this!)
Also will this affect my ongoing green card process? Thank you.

A ticket for jaywalking is not a misdemeanor. It is technically called a "civil infraction," which does not appear on your criminal record. No civil liberties are lost when a civil infraction occurs. These typically involve a small fine or a verbal/written warning.

Next highest type of crime is the misdemeanor. These ARE documented on your criminal record, and minimal civil liberty loss occurs. Punishment is typically a modest fine or very minimal jail time.

Next highest is a felony. These are (obviously) well-documented on your criminal record, and significant loss of civil liberties usually result (i.e. loss of right to vote, deportation, etc). Conviction of a felony grants you the permanent title of "criminal." In many states, upon conviction of your third felony, you are incarcerated for life.

To answer your question more directly: you will not experience any legal, criminal, or economic impact whatsoever from the warning you received.
