We can't even allow a few Mexicans into our country without thinking about building a wall between us. That's totally irrational. I mean, we ain't commies, why are we acting like commies?

What happens most times is that the first generation immigrants will mostly stay in cultural enclaves and not learn the language of the new world. Their kids will be the bridge between the old and new countries. The third generation will be fully integrated into the new home. Typically it takes at least 3 generations to be fully a part of the new country. If you moved to a new foreign country I'd expect the pattern would remain the same. OTOH, the world is so connected these days that things might have changed.
