Good point, I'm not certain of the demographics, but I would assume that most Muslim immigrants flock to the larger cities and perhaps that is why, in those areas, some people get the impresson there are so many of them. I know where I live it seems there are a great many Muslims here.

Perhaps what some people get distressed over is the % change in the population, Muslim is the highest. But as far as immigrants go, the majority still come from Europe. I don't really see anything to worry about personally.

Neither do I. It's a non-issue with me personally, though it is often discussed by people around me because, as I mentioned, there is a very large Muslim population in my city.
