How are you 'measuring diversity'?

Are you including the entire country, or just certain parts?

If it's the entire country, then Australians still don't have to deal with diversity because most of their minorities live away from the white people.

I’m not measuring it, just quoting another source. I just wanted to find some numbers to try and understand how Sweden and Australia compare.

You make an excellent point.

What are you on about?

Nearly half the country lives in just two cities, and the other 50% in like 3 more. And our “suburbs” are varied as fuck and based on income more than any other factor.

Yes, I'm talking about ethnic diversity.

Nearly half the country lives in just two cities, and the other 50% in like 3 more.

Where do the minorities tend to live?

Where do the minorities tend to live?

The same few cities as the rest of us?

Do you assume that the rich suburbs are also not home to minorities? Like it's not insanely difficult to immigrate here, meaning that it's generally those who are already relatively wealthy making the move over? We all live relatively co-mingled amongst each other.

Also why do you think of multiculturalism as a burden that one needs to "deal" with?
