Abstract

This article examines the pattern of housing choice among foreign- and native-born mover households in New York City, using two panels of individual-level data. We show that turnovers are most likely between households of similar race/ethnicity and that location in ethnically mixed and predominantly nonwhite subareas increases the odds of in-movement by foreign- and native-born black and Hispanic households rather than white household in-movement.Our results suggest that housing market segmentation continues to influence where households live and that immigrant mobility patterns are unlikely to increase the integration of whites with blacks and Hispanics in New York's neighborhoods. However, modest support for the roles of distinct neighborhood preferences and search processes is provided by the significant likelihood of immigrant inmovement associated with location in areas with high concentrations of persons with low English language abilities and previous occupancy by another immigrant household.
