Rezension

'This book is an excellent resource to learn about past and current understandings of the processes through which immigrants integrate into the housing markets and economies of the cities in the US and Canada.'

- Craig E. Jones (Canadian Journal of Urban Research vol 24:01:2015)

‘This compilation is an example of how comparative research can further advance our knowledge and understanding of structural inequality in place making.’

- Regina Serpa (Housing Studies vol 31:02:2016)
