title: Integration and ethnic spatial concentration:  the changing distribution of the Anglo-Jewish community.
abstract: "This paper identifies the changing locational patterns of the Jewish community in Britain during the past century.  Two major trends are identified.  At the national level there has been movement out of many small provincial communities to the large urban centres, particularly Greater London and Manchester.  Within the city, there has been movement out of the traditional inner city ghettos to the suburbs, thus reflecting the upward socio-economic mobility and integration of what was an immigrant group.  Both these trends closely mirror the general patterns of population movement in Britain during the twentieth century."  The lack of reliable data for the Jewish population is noted, and a methodology is suggested for identifying the changing locational patterns and intensity of Jewish community life.  The method is applied to the case of Greater London.
