Netherlands is the best country in the world,. However, you need to know how to speak Dutch to succeed.
It not necessary bro
I did my research and I found out that
99% of them can construct good English
You can also do your research about the country

And your stat source for the below is?
ivolt:

Do you have a stats source?

I am alluding to the average Nigerian immigrant and not highly skilled professionals.

I expect the immigrants' income to follow a bell curve like every other demographics.
Few outliers and majority average.

Belonging to a group that is best-educated and well employed does not preclude that the majority
of that same group are average or below income-wise.

It will be a 10th wonder of the world if an average Nigerian in the US earns significantly above the average wage of the country.

I can't come back.
I left a JOB of $800 monthly pay in Nigeria for a JOB of at least $1500 weekly pay.
And that's not yet my DREAM JOB.

I LEFT NIGERIA because I was overwhelming tired of how people are treated.
I was robbed countless times in Nigeria
Can't imagine my KIDS passing through such.

NIgeria is like a plague. You can't afford to touch her with a 20 meters pole. The irony of it is that the people are gullible.

I pray for you to LEAVE NAIJA...
But if you are comfortable with the KILLINGS, UNEMPLOYMENT, KIDNAPPINGS, ROBBERIES and you think you can surround yourself with mobile police men and defend yourself against these ILLS, please STAY BACK.

Forget that thing.

Yeah, Nigeria is bad but not that bad. Enjoy the USA, I did for over 3 decades, but not necessary to put those at home down as if they are all in perpetual bad circumstance.

Please don't make me bust out a list of bad stuff in that your gang infested Torrance grin

East or west home is the best.
What do you miss about that side?

Nothing. I wasn't an economic migrant. In the 80's a lot of us went for studies with the intention of coming right back. Mine too longer than usual because I ended up getting married and raising a family.

When I mean BASIC THINGS OF LIFE are BASIC.
No Governor talks about providing water, Light and Good Roads.
No one talks about eradicating Malaria.
They no longer talk about that.
JOBs are created Every Minute.

COME BACK and FIT in where..?
I just volunteered to join the Fight against Corona. Just waiting for my CALL UP.

It's worth Fighting here, because you see the benefits immediately.

What's the easiest route to Netherlands?
To be honest I don't know
I Just did a little research about their way of living and various jobs over there
You can widened your research on Google if you want to know more about their country through what I saw
it's a good country
Even me I will try apply for their visa when all this pandemic is over

Your sources are all about education.

I had no source before my previous comment, just basic statistics.
If every other immigrant in the US earns averagely or below, there is no reason to believe
that Nigerians are different.

Here is a source, not exactly what I want but it points to the fact that immigrants are having it
worse than native borns at least for up to 2 decades after immigration.

If you have any source that discuss the salary of average immigrants contrary to mine, please post them.

Theconglomerate:
ok no worries.
These $25k homes,do people actually rent them?
And can one also buy them from Nigeria without US paper work?
I'm curious please.

The funny thing is that I even learnt about them from posts by a Nairalander in the property section about 5 years back. It's not something that I'm interested in.

After reading the post I asked a friend with me in the USA and he told me about some Nigerians that bought.

You can indeed buy property in the USA from Nigeria. But why? There's money to be made here locally. Just be open minded.

Actually, it's okay to travel, it's nothing unique, just want them to do it legally. Nothing is sadder than to see migrants that are hiding about and not enjoying the USA.
