It's mostly the really long list of things that you mentioned. Cooperation with Muggles on so many levels, no misusing of powers against muggles, wizards dealing with issues like racism and sexism, working with the FBI...
I'm not seeing a wizarding society here. They're just muggles with wands.

And if people were kicked out of one society for not being "good enough", there's actually a reasonable chance that they'd take their new opportunity to be a big fish in a small pond and get even more uppity. Better wizards than THOSE wizards type thing.

Besides, it's the INTERNATIONAL statute of secrecy, not the national statute of secrecy. That sounds like things are pretty damn secret everywhere.
If it wouldn't be secret somewhere, I'd assume it's in a smaller country with a small population, or one where you have incredibly strong extensive family ties that mean that keeping it secret is much harder.
The US is none of these things, and if wizardry was big in the US, everybody would know about it.

Hm You bring up some good points, I'll certainly take those into consideration. Thank you.

As for the things I mentioned, I suppose I didn't put it right, but it's not so much nobody does it, but more that there's more awareness about it. People will still do it, no matter what. Sort of like how making drugs illegal won't stop it, but people are aware it's an issue. There's more awareness that these things are not okay, but people still do them because they don't care. They just work harder to get away with it and cover it up.
