Immigrant friendly countries?

Just dont say the US. 

Ideally, I want to live in a country where I wont be just another immigrant or just another foreigner. I want to live in a place that is multicultural and diverse so that I can experience new things and life and learn a lot from other people.In terms of weather, I like bearable cold weather, I like the snow, winter, white cover, wind, rain, cloudy sky, snowstorms, etc. Also, I like weather changing, I would like to experience all seasons during the year, but it would be okay if winter and autumn lasted longer than other 2 seasons. I hate hot weather, sunshine, the beach, hurricanes, thunderstorms along with rainstorms, summer all year round, heat, etc. I am wanting to immigrate to a better country than the current shthole I live in, to have a better life and more money, but money is not everything to me. As long as I am accepted by the community and welcomed and good financially, I am fine. I just want to be happy.US states that have the weather that I like, are not immigrant friendly, unfortunately. For example, in the Northeast an immigrant is just another immigrant. Those people (especially New England) will never consider you a part of them, even when you obtain citizenship you will be an American but never a New Englander. They are very xenophobic and racist white supremacists, even towards other Americans. The most immigrant friendly states are CA, TX and FL but I cant imagine living there due to the weather.

For me the US is not an immigrant friendly country, since only few states are immigrant friendly.

I love the UK, I am not currently an EU citizen, but I will be in a few years but I dont know if I will be able to move there due to Brexit.

Malaysia has a hot climate and the weather that I hate - for example clouds, rain and sometimes thunderstorm which I HATE. I like the cloudy and rainy weather the UK gets. Rainy, cloudy and 10-12C.

Updated 6 days ago:

Of course it is not always 10-12C but at least it is not 30-33C. I am fine as long as it is under 20C and cloudy and rainy.

18 gibbs 20 - I wish. Sometimes I wish I had never got my interest back to live in US and had continued living with this good opinion and perception I had about the US, but after doing research on USA, it is sad to see how racially, socially and politically divided it is. It is sad and it makes me sad.

Wtf that is not true, the most immigrant friendly US states are Texas, California and Florida, 45% of immigrants live in these states.

Updated 6 days ago:

Yeah, Canada, idk how I didn’t remember Canada! It didnt come across my mind, otherwise, it is strict but not too strict compared to the US or UK, people say it is easy to immigrate there but of course, only if you are skilled worker, also I know there are other ways but I am not familiar with them.

Toronto or London would be very expensive and they are TOO busy. I am sure there are smaller and more affordable cities where there is a fair amount of immigrants.

Updated 6 days ago:

Especially in Canada.

I cannot not add, regarding my description about New England, I read a story about a person from Texas and and a person from Ohio, this person from Ohio was told to go back to where he came from and these ppl from MA told him that they hate everyone who is not from MA or New England and this person from Texas was told to go to this city since there are a lot of immigrants and transplants. it is sad, look how people from other states are different, FROM THE SAME COUNTRY.

Updated 6 days ago:

If I were to move to USA, I would choose the East Coast since it is closer to Europe, and only Northeastern states offer the weather that I like (especially New England states) but after doing my research, I came to conclusion that you will be just another immigrant to them and locals will HATE you forever and you will only be a friend with other immigrants.Can I be American? Yeah, once I obtain my citizenship, but can I be a New Englander or New Yorker?Never, since I wasnt born and raised there

Updated 6 days ago:

If you want to be accepted by the community then you should go to California, Florida, Texas, Las Vegas.. these states are diverse and people from these states welcome everybody and people there are open minded and not frightened by immigrants.. but, the weather..

Updated 6 days ago:

Maxi, probably it will, it is not decided yet, but I definitely cant move to the UK right now because of Covid and not being an EU citizen yet.

Updated 6 days ago:

to move to this city in MA* since there are immigrants and a lot of transplants.. sad, very sad, I still cant understand this hate and prejudice against people from the same country.. you are all Americans and you are anything but united right now.. unfortunately.

Updated 5 days ago:

Foofa, I didnt ask you what to do, I asked what countries are immigrant friendly countries! Otherwise, I know exactly what to do, you dont need to tell me and I will do more research once I decide where to go! You are probably from that racist part of the US, I hate white supremacists like you *New Englander*!

    Where you'd be allowed to go always comes down to either having familial sponsorship or having something the host nation needs. So instead of cherry picking random lands based on your weather preferences and your dislike of New England start researching to find out where your professional resume would enable you to get a work visa.

    What you want is one thing............. the question is what can you offer any other country that would enable you a visa to live there....so a start would be a high level STEM degree and years of work experience and then getting a job offer from an employer who is legally registered to sponsor a work visa for you to live temporarily in that country.....and no getting citizenship of an EU country ( apart from Ireland) will not allow you to move to and live in the UK

    Generally cities will be the most multicultural places to go; so London, for example. 

    (ETA being an EU citizen is now irrelevant if you want to move to the UK, as the UK is no longer part of the EU; you'd need a visa)

    Canada sounds ideal for you, but, it does have strict requirements.  E.g, having a skill, or profession that is in demand there.  Canada is a land of immigrants, and 14 of the people here were born elsewhere.  In Toronto, that number is 50%.

    Most societies want people who can contribute in a meaningful way, not just drain resources. If you have something rare and useful to bring to the table, you'll be welcomed almost anywhere. If you're looking to bottom-feed, there will always be a segment of the population who resent you- and that's if they allow you in to start with.

    Malaysia seems pretty friendly and mixed diversity

    If you don't mind cold & very changeable weather, the UK could be for you.

    We don't particularly have very dangerous weather like some other countries, & it doesn't get too hot here either. 

    Most major cities in the UK are multicultural, especially London. 

  • Here in Australia we are not that friendly when it comes to immigrants as well. Australia is full. In fact we're overpopulated.

    When the non whites claims that Australia is a racist country, then why do they move here in the first place? Idiots.
