The functional composition of three ethnically based samples of retail and service establishments in Los Angeles County, California, corresponded closely to the pattern that might be predicted on the basis of income, available physical facilities for shopping, and subcultural consumer preferences. Functional diversification was inversely related to income. Interethnic differences were particularly pronounced in the food, financial service, professional service, and vacancy categories at the two-digit level. The food, eating and drinking, personal service, and “other retail'’categories exhibited significant variations at the four-digit level.
