Reanne Frank, Associate Professor, Sociology: New Faces, New Places and New Spaces: Immigrant Spatial Assimilation Across Metropolitan America
As a result of simultaneous changes in the metropolitan form and in immigrant residential settlement patterns, contemporary immigrants find themselves living not only in new places but also in new spaces (e.g. suburban rings) within those places. The purpose of the present paper is to provide a descriptive account of the types of neighborhoods immigrants access and determine whether this process varies across metropolitan areas. In this article we build upon an existing literature that investigates how specific ecological conditions shape divergent residential opportunity structures for non-Hispanic Blacks and Whites. We plan to extend this research to the case of contemporary immigrants using geocoded data from the New Immigrant Survey (NIS), a representative sample of immigrants who were granted a legal permanent residence between May and November 2003.
