I bet that your next door neighbour also believes that humanity will disappear because cows produce too much methane.

I have a next door neighbor that left Paris and settled his family in the USA because he believes that Muslims will eventually take over France and wanted a better place for his kids and future grandkids. He's a multimillionaire so most people don't have his options.
Traditionally European cities were segregated with immigrants living in urban slums. What is unique about the situation in Germany is that migrants are being located in desirable areas and small towns. In one case in Germany 1 thousand migrants were dumped in a tiny village and they now outnumber locals. A lot depends on what happens this year. On one hand the influx us increasing but also Countries such as Denmark and Austria's are closing their birders. That means migrants could get stuck in Italy and Greece.

I had business in the suburb which is like 45% immigrant, close to the 'critical 50% mark', and one of the very poorest one in the city, if not the poorest. This was week or so back, it was a miserable and overcast day with slush and close to sunset. This was really intimidating:







You almost can feel the danger and the sharia police coming for you. After all, I was listening to pagan satanist house music. There were some 'darkies' and some women with hijabs at the shopping centre, who immediately made me uncomfortable. I even saw a Black person at the bus stop! In the bus I was as a blue-eyed atheist protestant in the minority of all passengers, so I immediately ordered an air strike. And this wasn't far from the refugee centre, so just in case I called the Navy to strike too on the bus immediately after I stepped out from it.

Take that into account, the UK has less. It just seems that way because most of them live in London or the other big cities.
Yes, but the UK's cities appear to have higher Muslim populations than nearly any other country besides maybe Belgium. Of course, this will probably shift more towards Germany and Sweden given the recent demographic movements.

As I pointed earlier in the UK Muslims are concentrated in low income urban areas. The England there was the Rotherham raoe scandal but part of the reason the media was able to sweep it under the rug is the victims of Pakistan I gang rapes were from poor backgrounds.in Germany migrants are being dispersed across small towns and and more upper income areas. It is also affecting the tourism industry.

Isn't Finland's Muslim population like 0.8% though?

It doesn't look like a particularly liveable neighbourhood. I don't see much activity. No playground. No community facilities. What else is in that area? Just a block of concrete high-rises apartments? That's not a humane way to expect people to live and integrate with the larger city.

Are ethnic groups really that geographically isolated from one another there? No integrated schools? What initiatives are there to help immigrants pursue jobs outside of menial ones?
