abstract: 'This study contributes to the debates on both spatial mismatch and
``social-network{''''} mismatch by considering the independent effects of
spatial and social accessibility on the unemployment of less-educated
native-born black and immigrant women. These groups experience
relatively high unemployment yet differ in the hypothesized capacities
of their social networks. Using residential patterns and the by detailed
geographic census data matched to travel data, I calculated an
accessibility index to measure spatial job accessibility and used
information on neighborhood characteristics and household composition to
assess social accessibility. The results indicate that better spatial
accessibility to jobs is associated with lower unemployment among
native-born black and foreign-born Mexican and Vietnamese women; no
association was detected among the remaining immigrant groups. The
analysis yielded no empirical support for the advantages that residence
in an enclave may provide female immigrant residents in the form of
access to employment through social networks. In fact, the results point
to detrimental effects of residence in an ethnic enclave for
foreign-born Mexican and Vietnamese women. Finally, among all groups,
living with other employed adults significantly and substantively
decreased a woman''s likelihood of unemployment, indicating the
importance of household-based social accessibility for less-educated
native-born black and immigrant women''s employment outcomes.'
