New 2025 report about immigration in Denmark.

First figure: the proportion of descendants in their 20s who are not in employment, education or training.

You will never guess which group is on top.

🧵

People: "Denmark has gotten really strict on immigration".

Reality: Immigration over these last years is higher than ever.

Very stark differences in the education level of immigrants groups.

Descendants from Middle Eastern and African countries perform far worse in school.

Non-Western immigrants (top line) and descendants (second line from the top) are vastly more criminal than Danes (grey line).

In my opinion it doesn't make much sense to correct for income or socio-economic status with regards to crime.

If you are stabbed, it doesn't help you if your assailant was also uneducated or poor.

But that said, even if you correct for these things, non-Western descendants are still vastly more criminal.

The fertility for immigrants is slightly lower than that of Danes, and the fertility of descendants is at roughly the same level.

So unless we have continued mass immigration, there will not be population replacement. (Regrettably, we do have continued mass immigration.)

There is no further improvement of grades in future generations of non-Western descendants.

The grey line shows people of Danish origin.

The orange line is 1st generation descendants of non-Western immigrants.

The red line is 2nd generation descendants of non-Western immigrants.

They are equally low. We have mass imported perpetually poorly performing demographic groups.

The single most criminal group is descendants from Syria. They commit 6.7x as much violent crime as the average.

Second most criminal group is immigrants from Somalia who commit 6.2x as much violent crime.

This is corrected for age composition.

Regarding the first figure, of people not in education or work:
Remember that in Denmark education is free, and you even receive a monthly stipend from the state if you are in education.

So being in your 20s and not in education or work is pretty weird.

Mass immigration to Denmark over time: Keeps on increasing.
