Inequalities of outcome are measured using a harmonised indicator of neighbourhood deprivation (hardship). White British individuals tend to live in the best neighbourhoods, but within-group inequalities reflect regional locations in which different family names were first coined 700 or more years ago. The living circumstances of White Irish and Chinese migrants are observed to be in line with long-established White British family lines, but other conventionally defined ethnic groups fare worse, some very markedly so. Disaggregation of conventional ethnic groups used by the Office for National Statistics such as White Other and Other Asian reveals stark within-group inequalities. These findings suggest: (a) regional origins of inter-generational inequalities amongst the White British; (b) comparable neighbourhood environments experienced by the White Irish, Chinese and some White Other groups and (c) significantly worse neighbourhood circumstances within and between other more recently arrived immigrant groups. This work has several implications for understanding economic assimilation of migrants and the existence of inequalities amongst and between populations. date: 2023-06-11 date_type: published publisher: Wiley official_url: https://doi.org/10.1111/tran.12622 oa_status: green full_text_type: pub language: eng primo: open primo_central: open_green verified: verified_manual elements_id: 2030282 doi: 10.1111/tran.12622 lyricists_name: Lan, Tian lyricists_name: Longley, Paul lyricists_id: TLANX06 lyricists_id: PALON04 actors_name: Longley, Paul actors_name: Arnold, Richard actors_id: PALON04 actors_id: RARNO73 actors_role: owner actors_role: impersonator full_text_status: public publication: Transactions of the Institute of British Geographers citation: Longley, Paul; Lan, Tian; van Dijk, Justin; (2023) Geography, ethnicity, genealogy and inter‐generational social inequality in Great Britain.
