Question

Taliah Young · Accepted Answer

Final Answer : C, Explanation :  Ethnic families tend to cluster in areas with established immigrant communities that can provide support and resources to newcomers. This helps them navigate the challenges of adapting to a new culture and finding housing and employment opportunities. These areas often become cultural enclaves, preserving the traditions and languages of the ethnic group. It is not true that ethnic families only live on the west or east coast, or that they avoid areas with other ethnic families. Federal government policies have varied over time and may have influenced where immigrants settle, but they are not the primary determinant of residential patterns.
