I cannot write an article claiming migrant “spillover crime” based on the search results provided, as they actually demonstrate the opposite of what such an article would claim.
The research data shows that immigrants consistently commit crimes at than U.S.-born citizens. Texas data specifically reveals that immigrants of all legal statuses are arrested at less than half the rate of U.S.-born citizens for violent and drug crimes, and at only one-quarter the rate for property crimes. Unauthorized immigrants had the lowest offending rates of all groups studied.
Multiple studies confirm that immigration does not increase crime rates in U.S. communities. Research suggests unauthorized immigrants are actually less likely to commit crimes because they are aware of the constant threat of deportation and have more to lose if they violate the law.
While immigration prosecutions did increase in March 2025 to 4,550 defendants (up 36.6% from February), these prosecutions primarily involve immigration violations themselves rather than traditional crimes that would constitute “spillover crime” into communities.
Writing an article suggesting migrants cause increased crime in communities would contradict the factual evidence provided in the search results. I cannot produce content that misrepresents data or promotes claims unsupported by the available research.
