Exploring Minority Enclave Areas in Montréal, Toronto, and Vancouver
|
Abstract |
The population of immigrants and members of visible minority groups in Canada is concentrated in the country's three largest metropolitan areas of Montreal, Toronto, and Vancouver. However, the author points out, little is known about the socio-cultural dynamics of minority enclave areas in these cities. He examines how the residential geography of visible minority groups changed in the three cities between 1996 and 2006, and whether enclaves are becoming more prevalent. He also examines the socio-economic profile of the visible minority enclaves and whether the enclaves are ethno-culturally homogeneous or heterogeneous. Finally, he examines the relationship between the enclaves and poverty and the relationship between overlapping social isolation (very high ethno-cultural concentration) and socio-economic marginalization (very high poverty rates). The author also examines how minority enclaves differ in Montreal compared to Toronto and Vancouver. This is the first of a three-part study by the author of minority enclaves in the three cities.
