| Abstract | Discrimination, poverty, and ethnic attachment or choice have been identified as 3 factors that might explain residential segregation. This paper purported: (1) to comparatively document the nature and extent of metropolitan segregation of Mexican Americans and Blacks in the Southwest; (2) to perform an exploratory analysis of the significance of one of these 3 factors in determining residential segregation; and (3) to provide some speculation on the contributions of the remaining 2 factors. For 31 cities, expected indexes based on income and education were computed to explain residential segregation by socioeconomic status. It was concluded that: (1) a uniformly high degree of Black segregation was found for all cities, while Mexican American segregation was less extreme and more variable from one metropolitan area to another; (2) Mexican Americans were usually more segregated from Blacks than from Anglos; (3) the levels of segregation of both groups appeared unrelated to the size of the city; (4) socioeconomic status cannot account for the observed levels of Black and Mexican American segregation; (5) Mexican Americans have higher median incomes and yet lower median education levels than Blacks in almost all areas; and (6) income as a component of residential segregation is of no greater importance in Mexican American segregation than in Black segregation.
