社区的种族和移民组成以及移民飞地或街区的存在是否影响社区一级的毒品暴力？本研究探讨了这些因素和其他因素之间的关系，在迈阿密和圣地亚哥人口普查区。我们采用有关古巴人，中美洲人，海地人，墨西哥人和东南亚人的分布数据，控制毒品与非毒品暴力的社会和经济影响。我们还分析了移民和移民社区的各种浪潮的影响，以了解毒品暴力发生或在人口普查区一级受到限制的情况。研究结果支持了Portes和Rumbaut（2001）在迈阿密和圣地亚哥社区的分段同化假设的积极和消极方面。这一结论的力度各不相同，取决于种族构成、新移民与旧移民的对比以及经济贫困的全面影响
Does the ethnic and immigrant composition of a community and existence of immigrant enclaves or barrios influence community level drug violence? This study explores the relationship between these and other factors in Miami and San Diego census tracts. We employ data about the distribution of Cubans, Central Americans, Haitians, Mexicans and Southeast Asians, controlling for social and economic influences of drug versus non-drug violence. We also analyze the impact of various waves of immigration and immigrant communities to understand the circumstances under which drug violence occurs or is limited at the census tract level. The findings lend some support to the positive and negative aspects of Portes and Rumbaut's (2001) segmented assimilation hypothesis in Miami and San Diego neighborhoods. The strength of this conclusion varies and is contingent upon ethnic composition, new versus old immigration, and the all-encompassing effects of economic deprivation
