The assertions of links between school segregation and segregation in housing are evaluated in a case study of housing patterns and school integration in part of the Los Angeles metropolitan region. The indices of separation/segregation show that although schools in many instances were integrated with voluntary and then mandatory pupil assignments, the housing patterns changed little. However, there was a substantial increase in private school enrollment. This latter response is consistent with the residential choice literature which indicates significant white flight when there is intervention in school systems.

For many immigrant groups in the US, moving up has entailed moving away from the community of origin. Here, the extent to which this thesis is true for Hispanic migrants in southern Calif is examined utilizing census data. Results show that there has been significant growth in suburban Hispanic populations; these populations in general are better educated & have higher incomes. The Hispanic population in suburban areas is also found to be less segregated than that in central cities. 3 Tables, 16 References. Modified HA

This handbook elucidates and critically appraises the key issues within housing studies from a multi-disciplinary framework. It looks at ideas from a retrospective approach, but also analyses the future directions of research and theory in the area demonstrating how the study of housing can contribute to wider debates in the social sciences

As the proportion of immigrant minorities has increased in Dutch cities there has been a corresponding increase in the levels of minority versus Dutch pupil segregation in the schools. At the same time the levels of segregation in residential neighborhoods has remained stable. A specific analysis of school attendance patterns in Amsterdam shows that the reason for the increasing segregation in schools is that there is a strong tendency to choose schools of the same ethnicity. The choices both by Dutch and by immigrant parents are serving to increase levels of separation but until there is evidence of educational inequality as a result we argue policy intervention should proceed with caution. The current government approach is to provide supplementary funding to 'minority schools' rather than to assign children to schools.
