Inhaftierungsraten: Im Ausland geborene Staatsangehörige sind in der Anglosphäre unterrepräsentiert, in Europa jedoch überrepräsentiert [OC]

Is this because people are more likely to move from one Anglo country to another? 

Switzerland prison is apparently an international backpacker hostel

Sweden is surprising, I’d expect more disparity

Anglosphere countries have stricter immigration rules than most European countries, which filters for more law obedient foreigners (despite some populists saying otherwise). They are also surrounded from most sides by large water bodies, naturally tapering down illegal migration and refugee flows that bring in unvetted immigrants to Europe. Also there might be judicial bias and language barriers which exacerbate the problem in Europe.

Doesn’t seem to be any correlation with this and crime rates, at least in terms of homicide rate. Switzerland has the lowest homicide rate on this list and USA has the highest – If my memory serves me right.

TL:DR: Language and geography.

Anglophone countries benefit from drawing on a huge global pool of educated English-speakers, and from having fewer land borders, allowing more control over who enters the country. Another factor is failed integration policies across much of Europe.

It’s a lot easier being a migrant in an Anglo country.

Anglo’s are culturally about that business.

It blows my mind that migrants can be safe and successful in Anglo countries but then in continental Europe they’re just treated like second hand furniture.
