The Scanlon Foundation Research Institute interviewed more than 8,000 migrants from the fastest-growing communities — China, India, Pakistan, Nepal, the Philippines and Iraq — to examine how migrants experience belonging in Australia.

It would be interesting to see the breakdown by community. Some of those are definitely more established and less targeted and we know that migrant communities tend to be accepted by White Australian society over time, eventually adopting similar discriminatory attitudes towards more recent waves of migrants (see Southern European migrants).
