That African overrepresentation is much lower than the US and UK, and probably the whole West. It could be that Africans in Japan are the best Africans in Africa, but it's so much lower that I think maybe something else is driving it down.
Perhaps their police are hesitant to arrest Africans? Perhaps Japanese people are less likely than Westerners to call the police when they observe antisocial behavior?
Well, they stick out so the cops will easily identify them. I've even heard of innocent Africans in Japan being prosecuted because there are so few someone else committed a crime and they got nabbed!
I think it's hard to say much about integration unless you break it down by how long they've been there. Are a lot of these foreigners brand new? Is there a second gen to look at for them yet?
In the UK and US, Arab/MENA immigrants are generally more elite and highly selected. In the rest of Europe, where they’re neutrally-selected, they have multiple times higher crime rate than the natives
Yep, no surprise. When you get a chance, I'd like to see a graph of criminality and/or W (=100-IQ) as a function of the absolute value of geographical latitude. Should be a highly significant negative correlation.
I find it impossible to draw conclusions from this fascinating research. Clearly ‘something’ is going on, which in some way relates back to the original cultures of the immigrants concerned, combined with the cultures of the receiving nations, combined with the overall percentage of immigrants in the host nation. It will take a lot of additional data to drill down into all this, but you are clearly the man for the job! Thank you.
Is there any reason why you choose data from Saitama and not tokyo?
The tokyo data shows a far more crime among chinese and Vietnam foreign.
He couldn't find data for other regions, but apparently you could. So post them here?
oh, sorry, I actually don't, just ask for chatgpt and he show this output, not really reliable.
The situation may be that the sparsity of immigrants in Japan does not 'trigger' a cultural divide.

Perhaps Japanese Africans display less antisocial behavior in the first place because they are afraid of the samurai?
Well, they stick out so the cops will easily identify them. I've even heard of innocent Africans in Japan being prosecuted because there are so few someone else committed a crime and they got nabbed!
Samurai, well...that or the ninja. ;)
that must be it

"the pattern is broadly the same as in Europe and other Western countries: Middle Easterners and Africans rank highest"
In the UK, Arabs have a lower crime rate than natives, and iirc so was true of US? Where does the "middle-eastern" thing come from?

Maybe I’m missing it but feels like you have to control for age and wealth to meaningfully highlight this kind of group difference

Sample sizes too small for individual countries in most cases.
