Issues in Depicting Population Change with Dot Maps
Creating dot maps to show changes in racial and Hispanic population distributions between two census periods can be an effective way to examine one of the most important dimensions of change within any metropolitan area. Using dots of one color to show population increase and dots of a second color to show population decrease vividly reveals where changes have occurred within a larger total population. We prepared such maps for the book ???Changi…
Ethnic Residential Concentrations with Above-Average Incomes
Are residents of ethnic concentrations necessarily poor? We tested this notion with Census 2000 data for Asian and Latino households in the New York, Los Angeles, and San Francisco CMSAs. Ethnic concentrations included all census tracts in which the group comprised over 40% of the population. While many residential concentrations had low incomes, 11% of concentrated Latinos and 57% of concentrated Asians had incomes above their metropolitan media…
Ethnic Residential Concentrations in United States Metropolitan Areas
Although residential concentrations of immigrant ethnic groups in cities were common a century ago, it is not clear to what extent members of more recently arrived groups live near each other. We attempt to determine how common such clustered settlement is today, using 2000 census data to measure concentrations of Asians, Hispanics, and their larger ethnic subgroups in fifteen large metropolitan areas. The percentage of an ethnic group that is re…

The Ethnic Quilt
This book is an analysis of 34 ethnic groups in greater Los Angeles, California based on the 1990 U.S. census. It describes in detailed maps the distributions of the groups and explains in a rich text how each group's residential concentrations evolved historically. It also describes with tables and graphs several dimensions of each group's socioeconomic status and explains in a detailed text the reasons behind group differences in status. PDF fi…
Spatial Patterns of Immigrant Assimilation∗
This research compares the contemporary areal patterning of cultural and economic assimilation with patterns expected from a model of urban spatial assimilation described by Massey and modified by us. Using 1990 census data (PUMS) for 12 immigrant groups in the greater Los Angeles area, we locate the ethnic concentrations of each group and identify two additional zones based on distance from the concentration. The zones represent varying degrees …
Ethnic Differentiation by Blocks Within Census Tracts
How common is ethnic differentiation within census tracts and what types of tracts are most likely to exhibit this tendency? This research attempts to answer these questions with block data from the 1990 U.S. census for Los Angeles County. We measured non-random unevenness in ethnic percentage within tracts for twelve ethnic populations by means of an adjusted index of dissimilarity. Of the total of 300 sampled tracts, 48% showed statistically si…

The Most Ethnically Diverse Urban Places in the United States
Using 1980 U.S. census data, we ranked all urban places over 10,000 in population according to the relative ethnic diversity of their populations, as measured by the entropy index. This statistic reflects the relative heterogeneity of the population in the areal unit, the highest values occurring when all groups are present in equal proportions. The ethnic populations were identified in terms of two different sets or groupings. The first set cont…
