C3b Immigration Law Enforcement and Immigrant Homeownership

Friday, May 20, 2022 at 10:45 AM–12:15 PM EDT
Room 3
Key Words

homeownership, immigration law, 287(g) agreements, secure communities, assimilation theory

Short Description

The primary purpose of this study is to explain how county-level immigration law enforcement of 287(g) agreements affect the immigrants’ decision to buy a house. We use differences in differences models to identify associations between the variables selected over time and study the differential effect of the immigration law enforcement in the jurisdictions that implemented the 287(g) agreements compared to those that did not sign the agreements. We calculate the effect of the agreements on immigrant homeownership by comparing the average change over time in the outcome variable for the treatment group compared to the average change over time for the control group.
