ABSTRACT
The previous two chapters have shown that practical and symbolic neighbourhood use depends largely on the neighbourhood’s functional and ethnic diversity. Simply put, the more diverse the neighbourhood, the higher is the respondents’ neighbourhood use. The broad question dealt with in the present and following chapters is whether the neighbourhood also makes a difference for the flow of resources between people. On the one hand, we want to know whether the respondents’ increased capital, particularly cultural and social, benefits lower class co-ethnics (Chapter 7). On the other hand, the focus is on the Turkish-Germans’ instrumental and emotional support networks.
