>Studies have shown not only that war refugees from Syria barely appear in the police statistics, Germans are also not more likely to become a victim of a crime committed by a refugee than before 2015. The majority of refugees living in Germany are male, young, poorer than average and residents of large cities. These factors statistically increase the risk of becoming a criminal. Since the German majority society has a more balanced gender distribution, a more even age structure and is wealthier on average, a distorted picture emerges. In summary, the underlying immigration processes are highly diverse with respect to social life situations, origin and demographic structure. Thus, we conclude that the statement made by Alexander Gauland is mostly false.
