Evolution of Ethnic Enclaves in the Toronto Metropolitan Area, 2001–2006

Abstract: How do ethnic enclaves grow and change over time? This question is addressed by a longitudinal analysis of the geography of ethnic enclaves in the Toronto Census Metropolitan Area over the period 2001-2006. The analysis shows that the enclaves in the Toronto area are continually realigning, their centres of gravity shifting and their contours changing. Usually, in an enclave, an axis or band of high-ethnic-density territories is formed, surrounded by zones of lower ethnic concentrations. Enclaves of groups wit… Show more

“…The longitudinal studies of ethnic enclaves in metropolitan Toronto have found South Asian ethnic enclave concentrations primarily in the eastern neighborhood of Scarborough and in the west that today link previously isolated enclaves from Rexdale to Brampton (Qadeer et al 2010). Among those born in South Asia, those born in India constitute over fifty percent of all South Asians in Toronto, followed by twenty percent for those born in Pakistan and Sri Lanka, with five percent born in Bangladesh (Statistics Canada 2011).…”

“…Population density is a geographic variable used to identify areas with a high concentration of immigrants (Martori and Hoberg 2008;Qadeer 2010). In Spain, the intense migration growth of the past decade has generated significant territorial dynamics in immigrants' settlement patterns.…”

“…www.erudit.org Tous droits réservés © Groupe de recherche diversité urbaine et CEETUM, 2014 L es classes moyennes attirent de plus en plus l'attention des chercheurs qui étudient les villes multiethniques. Particulièrement importantes dans les flux migratoires récents au Canada, elles marquent fortement le paysage des banlieues des grandes métropoles comme Toronto ou Vancouver, comme en témoignent divers travaux de géographie de l'ethnicité portant sur les ethnoburbs ou les enclaves (Qadeer et al 2010 ;Wang et al 2013). En Europe, par contre, et particulièrement en France, où les classes moyennes font l'objet d'une littérature abondante depuis quelques années, à la fois du fait de leur « déclassement », de leurs diffé-renciations internes et de leurs comportements résidentiels (repli sur le péri-urbain, sécurisation par le logement [Cusin 2012 ;Damon 2013]), ce sont les classes moyennes blanches majoritaires qui sont étudiées, sans référence à un contexte de diversité ethnique.…”
