"Immigrants raise local crime rates."

Neutral summary. The claim treats immigrants as one group and crime as one rate. Studies usually separate legal status, offense type, and whether the comparison is to native-born residents of the same age. This page keeps those distinctions visible.

Before this leans either way, the two sources need the same years and the same geography. Right now they might be describing different places.
