关于英国城市地区少数民族成员的居住隔离程度，存在相当多的公众争论。一些人声称这种情况正在增加，另一些人则认为，随着经济和社会同化，这些少数群体的成员越来越多地远离最初集中的地区。这意味着，同化程度越高，隔离程度也就越低。为了检验情况是否如此，我们使用 2001 年英国人口普查的数据来探讨那些声称具有混合或双重种族身份的人 — — 以及那些被认为比那些只认同某一少数群体的人更容易被同化的人 — — 是否在居住方面受到较少的隔离。证据压倒性地支持了这一论点。
There is considerable public debate over the degree of residential segregation of members of ethnic minority groups in British urban areas. Some claim that this is increasing, others that with economic and social assimilation members of those minority groups are increasingly moving away from the areas of initial concentration. The implication is that the more assimilated are also the least segregated. To test whether this is the case, data from the 2001 British census are used to explore whether those who claim a mixed or dual ethnic identity – and who are assumed to be more assimilated than those who identify with one of the minority groups only – are less segregated residentially. The evidence overwhelmingly sustains that argument that they are.
