The recurring importance of the immigration issue has spurred renewed research interests to determine what impact immigration has on domestic labor markets—particularly the labor markets of unskilled workers. This chapter focuses on research that has analyzed the wage effects of immigration at a point in time. There have been a number of studies that have analyzed immigration and indigenous wages. T. J. Espenshade provides evidence on the impact of immigration on native wages in different geographical locations and industries around the United States. The chapter examines the effects of immigration on the real wages of black workers by utilizing an untapped data source: the 1990 National Longitudinal Survey of Youth. It utilizes the concept of occupational crowding as the focal point of the inquiry. The primary effort is to investigate the effect that the occupational crowding of immigrants has on the real wages of blacks in the domestic labor market
