为了评估种族和民族在形成居住隔离模式中的相对作用，本文利用隔离指数和图解策略来研究大纽约地区社会经济背景下印度黑人的居住模式。还考察了西印度群岛黑人占领的社区的特点，并与非裔美国人占领的地区进行了比较。结果表明，一方面，西印度群岛的居民在很大程度上被拒绝进入主要由白人占据的居民区，并被限制在黑人聚集区。另一方面，西印度群岛人似乎在这些以黑人为主的地区划出了一些独立的居民区，有证据表明，这些地区的质量比类似聚居的非裔美国人占据的地区要高一些。对这些结果的讨论集中在这些不同的居住飞地的形成和保持不同的西印度群岛民族认同之间的相互关系。
To assess the relative roles of race and ethnicity in shaping patterns of residential segregation, this article utilizes indices of segregation and a graphic mapping strategy to examine the residential patterns of The socioeconomic Indian blacks in the greater New York City area. characteristics of neighborhoods occupied by West Indian blacks are also examined and compared to those of areas occupied by African Americans. The results indicate that, on one hand, West Indians are largely denied access to residential areas occupied predominantly by whites and are confined to areas of large black concentrations. On the other hand, West Indians appear to have carved out somewhat separate residential enclaves within these largely black areas, and there is evidence to indicate that these areas are of somewhat higher quality than areas occupied by similar concentrations of African Americans. The discussion of these results focuses on the reciprocal relationship between the formation of these distinct residential enclaves and the maintenance of a distinct West Indian ethnic identity.
