Raw Normal View History

abstract: 'Unlike the situation in other immigrant-receiving countries, the impact
of co-ethnic neighbourhoods on immigrants'' life outcomes has been
understudied in Australia. In addition, because of reliance on
cross-sectional and sample survey data, existing Australian studies have
not taken advantage of recent methodological progress that addresses
selection bias. In that context, this paper estimates the impact of the
size of co-ethnic neighbourhoods on labour force participation,
employment, hours worked and income of immigrants using microdata from
the 2006-16 Australian Census Longitudinal Dataset that spans three
censuses. Drawing on this unique dataset, the paper applies a series of
OLS regression models that address issues of individual and location
sorting by applying individual-fixed effects, controlling for
residential mobility, duration of residence and using an exogenous
measure of co-ethnic neighbourhood size. We find a small significant
negative effect on labour participation and wage, particularly for the
non-tertiary educated and immigrants with low English proficiency.
However, when we control for residential mobility, residence in
co-ethnic neighbourhoods is no longer statistically significant, which
highlights the importance of stringent methodological choices that
control for settlement trajectories, while revealing that movement
toward smaller co-ethnic neighbourhoods is associated with increased
labour force participation. Our findings suggest that efforts by the
Australian government to settle immigrants in regional areas with a
limited migrant population should not affect the labour market outcomes
of immigrants given that ethnic enclaves do not facilitate labour market
integration in Australia.'
