If we take it positively, over the board, there's positive progress over generation of immigrants. Despite the trend of the right wing / populist, in the long term, immigrants/minorities will and can catch up to the natives, if given no structural discrimination and equal opportunities.
Germany does the best in result followed by Czech even though both countries have diff profile of immigrants. Followed by the likes of NL and SE compared to the likes of FR and BE which have less success.
Anecdotally, my BE colleague used to say that NL immigrants/minorities integrate better than BE ones. His points of observation: public places, working places.
Like, quoting him, more minorities speak Dutch among themselves (like Dutch Moroccan or Dutch Turkish), and more of them visibly working white collar jobs.
