Why do ethnic groups cluster together?
Ethnic groups tend to cluster in certain areas of cities because people of the same ethnic group receive the same opportunities and face similar forms of discrimination. Emphasized attitudes that are shared by citizens cause them to unify.
Ethnicity is considered to be shared characteristics such as culture, language, religion, and traditions, which contribute to a person or group’s identity. This shows that ethnicity is not necessarily genetic.
How do ethnic groups differ from one another?
An ethnic group or ethnicity is a grouping of people who identify with each other on the basis of shared attributes that distinguish them from other groups such as a common set of traditions, ancestry, language, history, society, culture, nation, religion, or social treatment within their residing area.

How are friends related to race and ethnicity?
While friendship clearly transcends race and ethnicity, the two are strongly correlated. Individuals tend to have more friends among their own race group than they do among races that are different than their own. Among adults who are white with no other race in their background, fully 81% say that all or most of their close friends are white.
Why do people stick to their own ethnic group?
It’s a lot deeper than skin color. It’s about having the same upbringing, values, likes, dislikes, and all of that. If you don’t find a certain skin color or race attractive, you should have the right to not be attracted to them without feeling guilty about it.
Why are there so many people of different races?
People of different races generally do not live close to each other, so interracial interaction and interracial friendships are not as common as they might be otherwise. Lack of proximity contributes to social distance between people of different races.
Who are the ethnic groups in my high school?
My high school literally had this break down of ethnic diversity: 4 Chinese people, 3 Lebanese people, 3 black people and the rest was caucasion.
