title: Migration, race and ethnicity, 1960-1980.
abstract: "This article compares racial and ethnic patterns in interstate and interregional migration in the years 1960 to 1980.... This research looks at geographical assimilation--the extent to which patterns of migration and regional distribution of minority groups resemble those of whites.  Attention is directed to United States-born Asian Americans, blacks, Hispanics, Native Americans and whites, and attempts to answer the following questions:  1) To what extent do the patterns of interstate migration of these groups resemble one another?  2) To what extent do the regional distributions and patterns of net regional migration of these groups resemble one another?"  This is a revised version of a paper originally presented at the 1988 Annual Meeting of the Population Association of America (see Population Index, Vol. 54, No. 3, Fall 1988, p. 495).
