Article Abstract:
A study was conducted to determine the relationship between ethnic-enclave residence and ethnic-niche employment by simultaneously controlling for the spatial and social characteristics of neighborhoods. The result finds that residential segregation plays an important role in sustaining labor-market segregation among immigrants and that gender emerges as a salient mediating factor.
