In related news, how are we versus other countries that allow little to no immigration, on immigration-based crimes?

By "immigration-based crimes", do you mean "crimes committed by immigrants" and, if so, are you seriously asking for statistics on how many crimes are committed by immigrants in countries that prohibit immigration?

And if you are asking about statistics on crimes committed by immigrants, then it stands to reason that countries with harsher restrictions on immigration and lower immigration maximums would have fewer crimes committed by immigrants by virtue of having fewer immigrants. However, to truly compare these different countries, one would have to normalize the data, perhaps by calculating a crimes committed by immigrants rate per capita where the specific capita used for the calculation only includes immigrants.

As far as I know, no one has yet collected the data necessary to make said calculation and comparison thereby.
