Intersections of Nativity Status, Race and Gender

This comparative analysis shows the disparities between foreign-born females of color and native-born White males. Both groups are English proficient. There are three levels of comparative analysis: Those who are high school diploma holders and below; those who have some college and and/or associate degree and those who have bachelor’s degree of above. The comparative analysis shows outcomes for 7 indicators: income, unemployment, poverty, working poor, full time work, homeownership, and rent burden. For each comparison, we show the difference between outcomes of the two groups. A comparison between these two groups seeks to illuminate any disparities that exist for New Yorkers who are similar in productive assets yet differ in their nativity status, race and gender identity, thus shed light on potential influence of these intersecting identities in shaping outcomes.
