Is that maybe including immigrants from other EU countries? If so then that's a very misleading number to compare to the US's.



Out of ~14 million foreigners in Germany only 5 million are from other EU states, and most of them (~3 million) are from Eastern European countries (Poland, Romania, Bulgaria, Croatia and Hungary). [1]

Then, why is it misleading to compare Polish and Romanian immigrants to Germany with Mexican immigrants to US?

Because California probably has lots of immigrants from other US states too, and they should be counted too to make the numbers comparable.
