Raul Perez Zamudio (“Perez”) pled guilty, pursuant to a written plea agreement, to illegal reentry of an aggravated felon, in violation of 8 U.S.C. § 1326(a), (b)(2). Perezs counsel has filed a brief pursuant to Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738, 87 S.Ct. 1396, 18 L.Ed.2d 493 (1967), stating that there are no meritorious grounds for appeal, but questioning whether Perezs 60-month sentence is reasonable. Although notified of his right to file a pro se supplemental brief, Perez has not done so. The Government has declined to file a response brief. We affirm.
We review a “sentence[ ]—whether inside, just outside, or significantly outside the Guidelines range—under a deferential abuse-of-discretion standard.” Gall v. United States, 552 U.S. 38, 41, 128 S.Ct. 586, 169 L.Ed.2d 445 (2007). We “first ensure that the district court committed no significant procedural error, such as failing to calculate (or improperly calculating) the Guidelines range, ․ failing to consider the [18 U.S.C.] § 3553(a) factors, ․ or failing to adequately explain the chosen sentence.” Id. at 51, 128 S.Ct. 586; see United States v. Provance, 944 F.3d 213, 218 (4th Cir. 2019). If there is no significant procedural error, then we consider the sentences substantive reasonableness. Gall, 552 U.S. at 51, 128 S.Ct. 586. “Any sentence that is within or below a properly calculated Guidelines range is presumptively reasonable.” United States v. White, 810 F.3d 212, 230 (4th Cir. 2016) (internal quotation marks omitted).
Having carefully reviewed the record, we conclude that the district court properly calculated the advisory Guidelines range, gave the parties the opportunity to argue for an appropriate sentence, and sufficiently explained the chosen sentence. Specifically, the court thoroughly explained its rationale for imposing Perezs within-Guidelines-range sentence and for ordering the sentence to run consecutively to his undischarged state sentence, emphasizing Perezs repeated illegal reentries, serious criminal history, and the danger he posed to the public.
*
Perez has not rebutted the presumption of reasonableness attached to his within-Guidelines sentence.
In accordance with Anders, we have reviewed the entire record in this case and have found no meritorious issues for appeal. We therefore affirm Perezs conviction and sentence. This court requires that counsel inform Perez, in writing, of the right to petition the Supreme Court of the United States for further review. If Perez requests that a petition be filed, but counsel believes that such a petition would be frivolous, then counsel may move in this court for leave to withdraw from representation. Counsels motion must state that a copy thereof was served on Perez.
We dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the materials before this court and argument would not aid the decisional process.

. The district courts decision not to depart downward under U.S. Sentencing Guidelines Manual § 2L1.2 cmt. n.7 (2018) is not reviewable, as we “cannot review a district courts decision not to depart[ ] unless the district court mistakenly believed that it lacked the authority to do so.” United States v. Torres-Reyes, 952 F.3d 147, 151 n.2 (4th Cir. 2020) (internal alteration and quotation marks omitted).
