A recent analysis by the ifo institute reveals that immigrants do not have a higher tendency to commit crimes compared to native Germans. The study linked crime statistics from 2018 to 2023 with location-specific data, concluding that urban areas with high immigrant populations also have higher crime rates among native Germans. Factors such as population density and economic conditions contribute to crime rates, while demographics of immigrants play a lesser role. This analysis contradicts the popular narrative suggesting that immigrants are more criminally inclined, especially during the current political climate in Germany.
