Die USA haben einen höheren Anteil im Ausland geborener Einwohner als die EU insgesamt (8,8 %) und die „alten“ EU-Länder (10,2 %). Von den großen EU-Ländern liegt bei dieser Kennzahl nur Schweden mit 14,9 % vor den USA. [OC]

Thing is, that in the EU some one eg born in Austria but living in Germany counts as foreign born. Some one living in Nevada but born in California isn’t foreign born.
Comparing apples to pears with this map?
(Freedom of movement in the EU has made it a lot more normal for people to move around inside the EU for jobs or love)
This partly explains the popularity of anti-migrant policies in America, though way less of these migrants are not Muslims like in Europe
Rookie numbers, Australia says hello at 31%.
Someone moving from one EU country to another is still just as much of a foreigner as anyone else. Pretty silly to try to distinguish them as different.
You can see the difference between East Germany and West Germany. The West Germans let in waves of Turkish guest workers while the East Germans only had a small number of guest workers from Vietnam and Angola. If I remember correctly West Germany had 3.5x times more migrants workers per 100k than East Germany.
It’s still meaningless either ways. Naturalizing as a citizen in most EU countries is pretty simple and not subject to caps, etc. At least for now.
I’d suggest that a larger % of that “foreign born” population in European Countries also include citizens born abroad.
Such nonsense. Most US immigrants come from Mexico.
