Twenty-first Century Gateways: Immigrant Incorporation in Suburban America

摘要

New trends in immigrant settlement patterns are changing communities across the US, altering the face of suburban America. The authors of Twenty-first Century Gateways argue that traditional immigrant settlement patterns in the heart of major cities have been fundamentally changed, as immigrants who traditionally settled in the inner city have been choosing suburban locations in recent years. The book sets out to describe this new trend across the US, examining the new settlement patterns, impacts on infrastructure and the role local and federal government can play in community inclusion or exclusion.
