Rogers, Ph.D. Low-Income Housing and Urban Renovation in the First Suburbs Conference LBJ School of Public Affairs The University of Texas at Austin April 20, 2009

2 Introduction As international migration increased to record levels in the 1990s, understanding current migration and mobility trends has become increasingly important. Immigrants not only contribute to inter-urban migration as they move from Los Angeles to Dallas, but as they settle permanently in the United States contribute to local or intra-urban mobility patterns to adjust housing needs. At the same time, the 2000 decade has seen changes in housing affordablity and overall the affordability of modestly priced homes for families declined in 2000s. The barriers to affordable housing and homeownership for minorities ies and immigrants continue to be the redevelopment (and loss) of affordable housing properties the reduced employment and income insufficient cash resources and tight credit non-resident status.

3 New Immigrant Settlement Patterns In Like Dallas, three other metro areas Houston, Phoenix and Atlanta added more than 100,000 people. Only Houston grew in greater numbers than the previous year. Austin was the second-fastest fastest-growing metro area in the country, behind Raleigh. Dallas-Fort Worth area added 146,532 people in , 08, even as the region grew at a slower pace than 23 other metropolitan areas with 50% of growth contributed to immigrants according to Federal Reserve Bank of Dallas. In 2000, the US foreign-born population increased by 57% between 1990 and 2000 In 1990s the foreign-born population began settling in areas beyond traditional gateway cities of NYC, LA, and Chicago (US Census 2000; Suro and Singer 2002) New Latino destinations, such as Charlotte, NC, and Plano, TX, recorded r hypergrowth (296%, 293%) during 1990s (Suro and Singer 2002) Dallas, Phoenix, and Atlanta transitioned from being secondary ports p of entry to emerging gateway cities because of increase in foreign-born population in 1990s (Suro and Singer 2002) The highest percentage change in immigrant populations in Texas occurred in Austin (172%), Dallas (152%), and Ft. Worth (130.7%)

7 Implication for Texas Only second to California, the Mexican immigrant population nearly doubled Legend in Texas to 1.9 million by 2000 and 2.3 million by percent of Mexican immigrants live in Dallas-Ft. Worth, Houston, San Antonio, or Austin and 50 percent are located in the state s largest metropolitan areas -- Dallas-Ft. Worth and Houston. In out of every 10 Mexican immigrants settled in San Antonio By 2004 all of the gateway cities became minority-majority White Alone: Houston (28.5%); Dallas (30%); San Antonio (30%) Austin (49.7%) (ACS)

10 Datasets and Population 2000 Census, 5% Public-Use Microdata Sample (PUMS) 85 Public-Use Microdata Areas (PUMAS) from Houston CMSA, Dallas-Ft. Worth CMSA, San Antonio MSA, and Austin-San Marcos MSA Entire dataset includes 20.8 million individuals, 7.4 million households, 1.9 million Mexican immigrants, and 679,908 Mexican households. Census Summary Files (SF1 and SF3) for 2000 Census and ACS data files

11 Methodology Used Change of Residence data in PUMS to identify native-born and Mexican immigrant household movers and census tract data from summary files. Categorical data analysis identified most significant variables among intra-urban urban movers regarding household size, education, time of arrival, housing tenure, occupational structure, citizenship, and residence in metropolitan areas (central city vs. v urban ring vs. suburban) Identified major settlement areas of immigrants with summary files and confirmed settlement patterns through spatial analysis Selected key variables for two logistic regression models to predict residential mobility (homeownership) among all groups, separate metropolitan areas and Mexican immigrant groups

12 Hypotheses 1. As immigrants settle permanently in the United States, they contribute to urban mobility. 2. Immigrant settlement patterns differ among metropolitan areas because of urban sprawl, population density, and migration. 3. As the majority of householders arrived in the 1980s, social and occupational mobility occur alongside residential mobility. 4. The main determinants of native-born residential mobility (life course, homeowner vs. renter [housing tenure]) only partially explain immigrant mobility.

13 Findings The majority of immigrant movers arrived ten to fifteen years prior to the census, were primarily renters living in urban areas in central cities or in older suburbs adjacent to Latino barrios and living in overcrowded large apartment settings typical of the vecindad rather than the New Urbanist barrio. Immigrants are more mobile than native-born not only because of international migration but because they enter the housing market more frequently as low-wage wage renters Metropolitan areas with high immigration tend to have higher intra- and inter-urban mobility as immigrant residents and newcomers adjust housing and employment ent needs. Latino immigrants (Mexican and Central American) were more mobile than the Latino native-born and the non-latino native born Latino immigrants were less mobile than other immigrants because of timing of immigration Residential and social mobility vary considerably when households s are broken down by age, marital status, citizenship, and nativity

14 Findings Majority of immigrants settled in central city AND urban ring because of extension of settlements, urban sprawl, and housing accessibility. Settlement patterns differed partially as a result of available affordable housing In San Antonio the majority of movers settled in single-family homes or small apartment buildings with 20 apartments or less In Austin, Dallas, and Houston the majority of movers settled in large apartment complexes with high population density, high rents, and overcrowded conditions Apartment wards or vecindades outside of (Houston/Dallas/Austin) or adjacent to barrios (Dallas/Houston) Class B and C apartments built in the 1970s and earlier Originally built for middle-class non-hispanic population Currently housing the majority of immigrants High mobility because of renter status, changes in employment, and redevelopment of properties under-development development or shifting to Class A dwellings

20 Austin Findings The majority of Mexican immigrant movers had already been in the United States for ten years or more, 62% were renters, and lived within the central city 71% of the households had children with 10.8 female-headed households Lived in overcrowded conditions with an average household size of 4.5 and person-toroom ratio of 1.4. The largest majority (48 percent) lived in medium-sized to large apartment buildings with twenty or more residents. However, 34 percent lived in single-family homes with a median home value between $70,000 and $79,999.

21 Austin Findings While 96 percent of the population spoke Spanish as a household language, only 30.7 percent were citizens, and 65 percent had no high school degree or college. Although the majority of households (33.7 percent) had arrived during the 1980s, the median household income was $42,977 and the median personal earnings were $23,474. Only 6.2 percent of the Mexican immigrant population was self-employed, with the majority either working in construction or services. Only 9 percent of local movers were professional. In contrast native-born movers were just as likely to be homeowners as renters, earned on average $40,940 or $64,473 as household income, and over 53 percent lived in single-family homes. While nearly 40 percent of the native-born were college educated, they were primarily employed as professionals (44.9 percent) or self-employed (10.2 percent).

22 Highest Concentrations Considering population distribution by census tract for 2000, areas with the highest number of Hispanic foreign-born, including both Mexican and Central American immigrants, were 49.1 to 74.4 percent Hispanic and 34.8 to 47.4 percent, foreign-born. The highest concentrations was located along Riverside and Pleasant Valley Road close to Elmont Avenue in Southeast Austin, a large centrally located apartment community where the greatest population growth occurred between 1990 and 2000 as the population increased by 117 percent from 3,198 to 6,955.

23 Other Concentrations Other large apartment communities, or vecindades are located between Cameron Road and 183; between US Highway 183 and Rundberg; Highway 290 East and Springdale in East Austin;

24 CT Population= 7,394; foreign born = 45.5%, not a citizen = 89.5% ; 62.2% arrived 1995

25 The local immigrant flea market, or pulga, on the corner of Pleasant Valley Road and Elmont Drive is a popular meeting place although zoning regulations, parking restrictions, and city enforcement have threatened the existence of the market. The spatial analysis shows that Austin s large apartment or vecindad wards are comparable in size to those found in Houston and Dallas.

26 CT Population= 6,955; % foreign born = 47.4, 88.5% not a citizen; 55.8% arrived 1995>

27 The detached four-plex is one source of affordable housing in North and South Austin.

28 Demographic Change All of the immigrant-dominated census tracts, except one, showed a negative change in the percentage of non-hispanic Whites and non-hispanic Blacks with the increase in the foreignborn population. Along Northeast Drive and Springdale, percent of Whites and percent of Blacks moved during the 1990s. Between Stassney and Ben White, 19.4 percent of Whites moved, and 13.5 percent of Blacks moved. Between I83 and Rundberg, a typically integrated neighborhood by all accounts during the 1990s, the percentage of non-hispanic Whites declined by percent and of non-hispanic African Am erican, by2.43 percent.

29 Houston 1990 and 2000 Increase in Foreign-Born Population: 77.7%

30 Dallas 1990 and 2000 Increase in Foreign-Born Population: 130.8%

31 San Antonio 1990 and 2000 Increase in Foreign-Born Population: 52.7%

32 Austin 1990 and 2000 Increase in Foreign-Born Population: 175.1%

33 The average Mexican immigrant family who moved arrived during the 1980s or early 1990s and lives in a 3.7-room apartment with 4.3 persons per household = room ratio was 1.4. The median household earnings are $30,000, 48% are linguistically isolated, 69% have not completed high school, yet unemployment rates were lower (4.4%) than for native-born non-movers (6.5%). The average non-hispanic White family lives in a 5.8-room house with 2.6 persons per household = room ratio was 0.6. The median household earnings are $58,200 for all native-born nonmovers, only 12% had no high school degree and 33% had a college degree. The median household earnings were $72,697 for non-hispanic native-born, only 9.3% had no high school degree, and 30.3% was a college graduate

34 The main determinants of immigrant residential mobility (homeownership) are similar to those of native-born. The main determinants are household structure (married, female-headed household), age, income, citizenship, and type of metropolitan residence (suburban vs. central city) Timing of immigration, citizenship, and length of time in the United States important in aggregate data cross- tabulations contribute to immigrant mobility Interaction terms (Linguistic Ability*Year of Arrival and Citizenship*Year of Arrival) were only significant predictor for 1990s arrivals who were citizens Predictors differed by metropolitan area

36 Conclusions While gateway cities are distinguished by the high percentage of immigrants, which is impressive by all accounts, the major characteristics of gateway cities are 1) the concentration and absolute size of immigrant communities; 2) the growth of recognizable immigrant enclaves; 3) the high intra-urban mobility patterns of immigrants; 4) the rising segregation from the majority; and 5) the diverse yet polarized socioeconomic status of immigrants in these cities.

37 Significance Contributes to our knowledge of intra-urban mobility and underlying relationships of spatial and segmented assimilation and housing tenure (Massey 1985; Portes and Rumbaut 1990) Fills a gap in the Texas literature on intraurban mobility and contributes to existing studies on inequalities and stratification in Texas gateways
