Ethnic minorities’ spatial concentration and their predominance in deprived areas are two well-known patterns that characterize Britain’s social landscape. However, little is known about ethnic minorities’ opportunities for spatial integration, especially after individual, social origin and childhood neighborhood characteristics have been taken into consideration.
