===== Definition ===== 

Immigrant spatial segregation refers to the phenomenon where immigrants tend to settle in specific geographic areas within a country or city, often forming distinct communities or neighborhoods. This segregation can occur due to various factors, including economic opportunities, cultural familiarity, language networks, and social support systems.

Immigrant spatial segregation can have both positive and negative effects. On one hand, it can provide newcomers with a sense of belonging, cultural support, and access to services tailored to their needs. These immigrant enclaves may foster the preservation of cultural traditions and languages and facilitate social integration into the broader society.

However, immigrant spatial segregation can also lead to social and economic isolation, language barriers, and limited access to mainstream opportunities such as education and employment. Concentrated immigrant neighborhoods may face challenges such as poverty, crime, inadequate infrastructure, and discrimination.

Efforts to address immigrant spatial segregation often involve policies and programs aimed at promoting social integration, economic mobility, and inclusive urban development. These initiatives may include housing policies that encourage mixed-use and mixed-income neighborhoods, language and cultural integration programs, as well as efforts to combat discrimination and promote diversity and inclusion.
