Assimilation and stratification in the homeownership patterns of racial and ethnic groups.
"This study investigates homeownership differences among twelve racial/ethnic groups using the [U.S.] Public Use Sample data (PUMS) of the 1980 census.... The study identifies a number of differences among non-Hispanic whites, blacks, American Indians, and Asian and Hispanic groups in access to homeownership.... For every group there is a strong correspondence between homeownership and various individual-level factors: age, household composition, socioeconomic position and language acculturation.  The observed differences in ownership are substantially attenuated when group differences in some of these variables are controlled."
