Undocumented immigrant: 11.3
So while this is very US (Texas) specific study, and doesn't seem to provide more granular data. At least where I'm from (Norway), studies have shown that people born to immigrant parents tend to be most at risk, and be assaulted by other people born to immigrant parents. So basically immigrant-on-immigrant violence. Not sure if that at all translates to Texas. The studies usually don't try to explain why these things happen, but could be the result of things like socioeconomic factors.
Not to mention all the dark numbers - how many illegal immigrants that experience assault will report that to law enforcement? Compared to legal citizens.
