Is "specific type of immigrants" your codeword for Muslims? Sounds a tad xenophobic to me.

In context, it's the kind of immigrant who doesn't want to assimilate, but who would rather form a gang with friends from the old country.

If you interpret that as being a codeword for Muslims, either you're projecting, or (too many) Muslims actually are that kind of immigrant.

The US has this problem, too. Quite a lot of "that kind of immigrant" to the US are not Muslims.

Given how the people from the host country tend to ostracize them even if they try to integrate: what else should they do?
