Immigrants, both legal and undocumented, commit less serious crime than native-born Americans, according to studies from the Cato Institute and the Brennan Center. UC Irvine criminology professor Charis Kubrin, who debunks the idea that immigration boosts crime rates, will accept the Stockholm Prize in Criminology for her work. Kubrins research shows that immigrants tend to be driven and goal-focused, and have strong ties in their communities, which protects against crime. Despite facing threats and backlash, Kubrin plans to use her platform to push data into policy talks and urge focus on real issues like gender violence and fraud.
