Please don't bash on their culture, just show an respect to them as culture.
A dozen men in two rooms is not the same as parents, children, and grandparents sharing an apartment. The multi-generation living together is cultural. The large group of unrelated young males is not culture.

Some of them aren't in overcrowded, depends on them but there's several men that who are working class and live in 1-2 bedroom apt so overcrowded.
Those that are overcrowded are breaking occupancy laws. Most residential areas have limits to how many unrelated people can live together in a certain number of square feet. It has nothing to do with racism. A dozen Swedish guys can't live in an 800 sq. ft. apt. either.
