I mean, you were a drain on your country's education money, but you're still allowed to live there, so why shouldn't they be able to?
And arguably, the fertility rate (which is around 1.43) of the Netherlands means that there wouldn't really be a need to continue to keep making houses. You can just wait for the population to decline! Like, factoring in the babies (who, uh, don't typically need their own houses), you would need to take in... Well, yeah, around 100k immigrants yearly to maintain a constant population (need to have that replacement rate be around 1.05ish), so it sounds like there isn't really a problem, but I also haven't really factored in that you might just be a racist.
