Having a diverse origin of inhabitants is a plus for many places. It makes them more interesting, gives more opportunities to practise language skills, etc.

I live near Manchester now and it's great for that, although I do recognise the opposite exists, too! (I live in Bolton which has huge, not-particularly-integrated minority populations). By contrast, when I go to visit my parents in another part of England, it's all just beige boring people that haven't ever left this corner of the world
