Abstract: | Industrial democracies vary widely in the degree to which they discourage immigration. To explain these variations , this article emphasizes the geographic concentration of immigrant communities. This concentration creates an uneven distribution of costs and benefits, providing a spatial context for immigration policies. Net public demand for tighter immigration control increases in localities where immigrants concentrate when those areas experience rapid increases in immigration, higher immigrant proportions, higher unemployment, and more generous immigrant access to social services. |
