I would argue that most immigrants were probably more intelligent than their peers and had the means and confidence to realize they would do better somewhere else unless of course they were a fugitive.
I wouldn't say most immigrants were more intelligent, I'd say most immigrants back in the day were adventurous, or they were running from something (the law, religious persecution, war or famine).
I'd guess they were more independent and willing to take a chance.
But I'm just opining. I really don't know.

I think Asian immigrants have a more challenging barrier to overcome to get here, so we typically get a lot of bright people. Many come for employment, higher education, etc. If it were as easy as walking over here from China or India and jumping a fence, things would be different.
