Title |
Residential Patterns of New Immigrants and Linguistic Integration
|
Abstract |
An examination of the residential patterns of new immigrants to Montreal and the impact of these patterns on subsequent language use in the workplace and educational programs. The authors explore a sample of 1000 new immigrants, situating them in Francophone, Anglophone, Allophone, and Heterogeneous neighbourhoods. Three aspects of their residential establishment are examined: their distribution within the neighbourhoods of Montreal, the factors determining the choice of one or another of the four types of linguistic milieux, and the influence of these milieux on subsequent language use.The authors conclude that immigrants in Anglophone neighbourhoods appear to use English more than immigrants use French who live in Francophone neighbourhoods.
