Introduction:
Remember that many people who immigrated to the west converted back or they lost their religion. Many of them became atheists. Statistics show that most Muslim children loose their Islam. Many Muslim girls and boys of Pakistani and Arabs .. etc are lost in the west, reading the Holy Quran without knowing the meaning, also loosing their mother tongue languages, Imams reading same sermon (khutbah) every week, Muslims competing in which one is richer and his house is bigger, .. If you don't believe me, ask Paula Abdul.
To live in the west you must fulfill three conditions:
1) You should have a strong faith and a deep knowledge in Islam that will keep you from melting in their societies and let you keep your religion safe.
2) You should never love their culture or take them as close friends (i.e. guardians, or patrons). Allah said:
You will not find any people who believe in Allâh and the Last Day, making friendship with those who oppose Allâh and His Messenger, even though they were their fathers, or their sons, or their brothers, or their kindred (people). For such He has written Faith in their hearts, and strengthened them with Rûh (proofs, light and true guidance) from Himself. And We will admit them to Gardens (Paradise) under which rivers flow, to dwell therein (forever). Allâh is pleased with them, and they with Him. They are the Party of Allâh. Verily, it is the Party of Allâh that will be the successful.
(58:22)
O you who believe! Take not the Jews and the Christians as Auliyâ' (patrons, protectors, helpers, etc.), they are but Auliyâ' to one another. And if any amongst you takes them as Auliyâ', then surely he is one of them. Verily, Allâh guides not those people who are the Zâlimûn (polytheists and wrong*doers and unjust).
(5:51)
This is because loving them will result in following them gradually. The Prophet 
said: "Verily the one who loves a people belongs to them and the man is (in the Hereafter) with the people whom he loves"
3) He should be able to freely practice his religion so he should not be band from praying, fasting or pilgrimage. Allah said:
Verily! As for those whom the angels take (in death) while they are wronging themselves (as they stayed among the disbelievers even though emigration was obligatory for them), they (angels) say (to them): "In what (condition) were you?" They reply: "We were weak and oppressed on earth." They (angels) say: "Was not the earth of Allâh spacious enough for you to emigrate therein?" Such men will find their abode in Hell - What an evil destination!
(4:97)
4) He should not intend to stay for the rest of his life in the west unless for some situation such as if he was practicing Da'wah. The Prophet said: "I am free from (clear of) every Muslim who dwell in (reside in) between the Disbelieves" (Abu Dawud, Tirmuthi, and others)
