1 Neighbourhood Composition and Quality by Etnicity in The Netherlands joop hartog aslan zorlu Universiteit van Amsterdam Presentation prepared for E Pluribus Prosperitas Workshop VU-TI April Amsterdam Very preliminary version

2 JHartog & AZorlu, UvA -April The problem: Public debate and policy discussions suggest ethnic concentration in The Netherlands International (US) literature often focusses on concentration areas Possibly very different in Europe, with more social interventionist policy tradition Few if any quantitative data on the European situation. Analysis of Dutch data: Regional dispersion of ethnic groups: concentration? Trends in concentration/dispersion? Relation to neighbourhood quality? Preliminary, mostly descriptive analysis

3 JHartog & AZorlu, UvA -April Dutch case interesting because of very large inflow of immigrants Dutch population 2012: First generation immigrant: 11% Second generation immigrant 10% Immigrant population: Non-western : 55% Western : 45%

4 JHartog & AZorlu, UvA -April DATA aggregated neighbourhood data Statistics Netherlands. The Netherlands divided up in about neighbourhoods (smallest spatial administrative areas) mean population size about 1600 immigrant: born abroad or at least one foreign-born parent from non-dutch origin. If restricted to NBH with at least 50 persons and at least 10 NW immigrants: 5252 neighbourhoods with total of million inhabitants (83 percent of total population).

5 JHartog & AZorlu, UvA -April In these NBH s: Turks 2.2 % Moroccans 1.9 % Surinamese 2.0 % Antilleans 0.8 % Other NW 3.5 % Western 8.7 %

7 JHartog & AZorlu, UvA -April Cumulative distribution of migrants by the fraction of Non-Western migrants in the neighbourhood West Antillean Turkish Moroccan Surinamese OthNW Non-Western migrants in the neighbourhood

8 JHartog & AZorlu, UvA -April Cumulative distribution of migrants by Diversity index in the neighbourhood West Antillean Turkish Moroccan Surinamese OthNW Diversity in the neighbourhood If composition proportional to Dutch population: d = % of NW has lower immigrant diversity

9 JHartog & AZorlu, UvA -April Conclusions on segregation: 1. Immigrants are widely dispersed across NBH s all over the Netherlands. 2. The share of non-western immigrant population residing in immigrant NBH s is not high: 75-85% of immigrants live in NBH s with less than 50% NW immigrants Less than 15 % live in NBH s with more than 75% NW 3. Even in 4 large cities very little concentration: 17% of NW immigrants in NBH s > 50% NW 95% of T,M,S,A in NBH s < 1/3 NW 4. No mono-ethnic NBH s. NW concentration areas typically composed by several ethnic groups, which indicates a high degree of population diversity.

12 JHartog & AZorlu, UvA -April Conclusions changes NBH composition: No really dramatic changes 5. % NW, S, T : slightly degressive % M: clearly progressive 6. Surinamese seems most mobile: move out from S and M NBH s; T and M move into S NBH s 7. Effect of dissimilarity and diversity only for % S: down with former, up with latter 8. % T up in in poor social benefit NBH s; no such effect for % S, somewhat for % M (disability only)

13 JHartog & AZorlu, UvA -April III. IMMIGRANTS AND NEIGBOURHOOD QUALITY Two indicators: 1. SR: Percentage share of rental houses 2. VH: Average home value ( WOZ waarde, assessment for fiscal purposes) Validity of quality indicators will be investigated

24 JHartog & AZorlu, UvA -April OVERALL CONCLUSION: 1. Immigrants widely dispersed across NBH s, no dominance of ethnic enclaves 2. Almost half the immigrant pop is western 3. Only for Moroccans evidence of progressive dynamics (more concentration) 4. % T up in poor social benefit NBH s To be done: Validate quality indexes (SR,HV) Measure residential mobility flows across NBH s (dynamics of groups and NBH s) Differentiate 1st and 2nd generation
