Description
Yanping Jiang, Fengyan Tang, and Dinesh Mendhe study neighborhood segregation among older Chinese immigrants in a 2023 paper. Where older adults live shapes health, and minorities often live in areas of social and economic strain. Segregation among older Asian Americans was little studied.
Data came from 3,097 participants in a Chicago-area study of Chinese elderly. Neighborhoods were classed by a concentration index, from strongly Chinese-speaking to English-only. The most Chinese-segregated areas had lower status and cohesion but higher disorder. Residents there were more often unmarried yet less likely to live alone. The paper maps how place and person intertwine.
