Abstract

Residential segregation of Mexicans, Cubans, and Puerto Ricans was measured in eight US urbanized areas. These Hispanic groups were found to be highly segregated from blacks, and less segregated from non-Hispanic whites. An apparent exception to this generalization was the Puerto Rican population of the NE, which was less segregated from blacks than from whites. Hispanics also tended to be less concentrated within central cities than blacks. -Author
