7. France
Foreign born population: 7.439.086
Almost 7 and a half million migrants accounted for 11.6 percent of people living in France in 2013. The majority of foreign nationals were from Europe, mainly Portugal, and former French colonies in Africa. Compared to other OECD countries, migrant community in France is less educated with the higher unemployment rate. Almost half of foreign born French residents are unemployed, and their median household income is among the lowest among OECD countries. Economic challenges along with poor integration are often cited as reasons for a violent outburst in migrant communities across France.
