社会学家已经证明,在美国,对出租房屋的搜索会重现按种族/民族和家庭收入划分的不平等。然而,学者们对法律地位如何也可能限制获得避难所的了解相对较少。为了解决这一差距,本文比较了30个低收入、无证/混合身份的墨西哥、中美洲和南美家庭的住房职业生涯,并与10个低收入、主要是墨西哥人的美国公民/LPR家庭的住房职业生涯进行了比较,这些家庭总共搬到了加利福尼亚州洛杉矶。尽管公民和无证租户出于类似的原因搬家,但在这两个群体中,找到新家的过程有很大不同。在租房申请的筛选部分,租房者的法律地位变得突出起来,这要求对每个家庭的成年人进行信用和背景调查,提供可核实的收入,以及银行信息。因此,没有证件的租客被排除在大多数正式租赁之外。取而代之的是,这些家庭寻找富有同情心的经理,或者与朋友、家人和非亲属并肩工作。尽管存在这些障碍,但随着时间的推移,无证家庭和混合身份家庭通过在双人住房中从客人过渡到房东,实现了更大的住房保障。这些发现延续了之前的研究,即住房搜索如何对搬家的人进行分层,拉美裔移民家庭的住房职业生涯,以及违法行为的惩罚性后果。
Sociologists have shown how searches for rental housing reproduce inequalities by race/ethnicity and household income in the United States. Yet scholars know comparatively less about how legal status may also limit access to shelter. To address this gap, this article compares the housing careers of 30 low-income, undocumented/mixed-status, Mexican, Central American, and South American families with those of ten low-income, predominantly Mexican, U.S. citizen/LPR families across 103 total moves in Los Angeles, California. Though citizen and undocumented renters moved for similar reasons, the process of finding a new home varied substantially across these two groups. Renters’ legal status became salient during the screening portion of rental applications, which requested a credit and background check, a verifiable income, and banking information for each household adult. As a result, undocumented renters were excluded from most formal rentals. Instead, these families searched for sympathetic managers or doubled up with friends, family members, and non-kin. Despite these barriers, undocumented and mixed-status families achieved greater housing security over time by transitioning from guests to hosts in doubled up homes. These findings extend prior research on how housing searches stratify movers, the housing careers of Latino immigrant families, and the punitive consequences of illegality.
