Self‐report questionnaire and census block data for 843 adolescents in immigrant families were analyzed using multilevel regression analysis to assess how actual and perceived neighborhood assets along with parenting factors influence adolescent general self‐efficacy. Participants consisted of first‐ and second‐generation adolescents in Los Angeles. Results indicated that perceived neighborhood assets, parental support, and satisfaction with individual attributes were positively related to general self‐efficacy, whereas parental psychological control and self‐deprecation were negatively related to general self‐efficacy. No significant association was found between family form, generation status, or structural neighborhood advantage and adolescent general self‐efficacy
