More than half of non-European immigrants leaving Sweden have university education
Briefly

Statistics Sweden reports that over half of non-European immigrants who left Sweden last year possessed tertiary education, with 57 percent of the 17,000 individuals having post-secondary qualifications.

Patrick Joyce highlights the underutilization of highly educated migrants and attributes their departure to various factors, including housing issues, declining school quality, low salaries, and a weak currency.
