Sorry, just found a newer number (my previous one was for ewnd-of-2003, this one is end-of-2004): resident foreigners in Germany are down to 6.72 million.

To this number you have to add the more 2.4 million immigrants from the former USSR who got German citizenship and who represent a big and yet unsolved integration problem. This is why I wrote "migrants" and not foreigners.

On one hand, I think that number is similar to the number of integrated non-citizens - or less. On the other hand, I suspect those 2.4 million aren't all non-integrated, either. (Note tough, this all may be quibbling about numbers - while it may be a third to a half of what you wrote, I don't deny that there is a problem.)
