In which country or countries in the world, do you think, immigrants that enter the society integrate the fastest into its culture, society, social norms, workforce, etc., with the least difficulty or strife?
For a society to have well-integrated immigrants, both sides should be considered, where the natives tolerate and are welcoming to the immigrants without much xenophobia but also the immigrants themselves feel happiest to be a part of the new society and want to integrate in to it as much as possible. Basically, where the polarizing "us vs. them" mindset with regards to who is either native/local (or with earlier ancestry) and who recently arrived is the least strong and there is the least conflict with regard to identity politics this way too, with everyone happy to be a citizen of the nation.
Probably the English speaking countries...largely because English is so global, and most immigrants at least know some English...most Australians quickly integrate because we're an immigrant society, even if there are some who claim to be 'more Australian' than others. I imagine one could never really be fully accepted somewhere like Japan.

United States, without a doubt.
The US has its flaws, but its the most open country to newcomers willing to integrate.
I can't imagine any country that makes it easier. Considering the fact that every white American is called racist if they try to do anything their way.
It seems Indians integrate better into UK life than other immigrant groups. You can usually find Indians in the middle-class suburbs of major UK cities. Less so for other immigrant groups, who are more likely to congregate into certain areas. Still, London doesn't have the stark racial segregation that New York has.

Here is the definition of racial segregation for you:
"Racial segregation is separation of humans into racial groups in daily life. It may apply to activities such as eating in a restaurant, drinking from a water fountain, using a public toilet, attending school, going to the movies, riding on a bus, or in the rental or purchase of a home.Segregation itself is defined by the European Commission against Racism and Intolerance as "the act by which a (natural or legal) person separates other persons on the basis of one of the enumerated grounds without an objective and reasonable justification, in conformity with the proposed definition of discrimination. As a result, the voluntary act of separating oneself from other persons on the basis of one of the enumerated grounds does not constitute segregation".
Apply your brain and figure it out for yourself - it isn't hard - honest!
