Popis: This study is concerned with the problems posed by the increasing tendency of immigrants to become permanent residents in the larger cities of the Federal Republic of Germany. It focuses on an analysis of intra-neighborhood movements of West Germans and immigrants in Duisburg and Dusseldorf. Consideration is given to the level of segregation the distance of immigrant moves the effect of neighborhood quality on migration the level of replacement of Germans by immigrants and the spatial distribution of immigrant communities. The results suggest that despite the difficulties encountered by immigrants in their attempts at assimilation the level of segregation in urban areas is low. The reasons for this such as housing shortages are discussed.
