So, how ethnically diverse is your neighborhood?

Also, yesterday I saw a gaggle of young Scotts in kilt.  :huh:

Pretty diverse.  I do not have any numbers or anything.

Quote from: Zanza on April 08, 2013, 01:55:13 PMThe house I live in has a Kebab shop in the basement.
We have a Turkish youth club in the basement. Across the street is the "Kapadokien Palast", another club for Turkish teens.
Down the street some Bulgarian (or some other East European country?) ladies are looking for customers at night...strange enough in the other direction, they sell million Euro penthouses. It's a strange area - between seedy brothels and strip clubs and fancy yuppie houses with Porsches are just four blocks or so and I live halfway inbetween.

The area I live in is pretty diverse. I looked at the census data for my 'Middle Layer Super Output Area'.

About 31% is 'White British/English/Scottish/Welsh/Northern Irish'. The next biggest ethnic identities are 'Black; African' at 23.2% followed by 'White; Other White' at 10.5% and 'Black; Caribbean' at around 9.5%.

About 59.5% of the area were born in the UK (and Ireland), with around 33% from 'Other countries' (I'd guess African and Caribbean countries). Interestingly looking at the languages and passports the area's EU migrants are twice as likely to be from pre-2001 countries than 2001-11 countries, mainly Spanish people.

Only 12.5% of households say that no people in the household have English as their main language. 72% say it's the main language of everyone in the household.

It's 53.5% Christian. With about 25% of atheists ('no religion') and 10% of Muslims.

I guess Cincinnati is diverse, but my township (pop. just under 50,000) is 96.6% White, 0.7% African American, and 2.7% of all other races combined.

Bonus questions for the Americans: how many first or second generation immigrants are in your area?

First generation?  A shit ton of Russians, Ukrainians, Byelos, and other assorted Cossack filth.  You can readily identify them by their chest hair, as all their shirts are open to the navel, regardless of the weather.
Also, lots of various Caribbean types, Koreans, West Africans, etc.   A rich milieu, a vibrant tapestry, blah, blah, blah.
Second generation, too many to count from all over the place.

Stag do?

Possibly. They seemed very hung-over but also very young. Unfortunately, cursory glances did not reveal any of them to be particularly hot, but I didn't want to stare.

Well my city is 49% Non-Latino White
35% Latino
8% Non-Latino Black
7% various sorts of Asians (largest is Indians with about 2%)

No wonder you embrace diversity so much.

I have to ask my brother to which of Vienna's districts he contributes on that statistic.  :lol:

As for my hometown, we still don't have as many inmigrants as other cities of a similar size, but they seem to be getting more established. In my street I have within walking distance a Latino supermarket and a nutrition suplements shop run by a bunch of scarily muscular black dudes.
