Not Just Rugby Clubs: Scottish-and Welsh-born Migrants in London.

This paper considers the residential distribution of the Scotland-and Wales-born in London in relation to other migrant groups. It goes on to consider the ecological character of the neighbourhoods in which they are concentrated, and it uses the 1991 SARs to identify individual-level characteristics. Overall the Wales-born are shown to have a higher level of educational and occupational attainment than those born in Scotland and to be associated with more middle-class neighbourhoods. However, evidence is presented that the Scotland-born are a more varied population, with contrasts between those living in the inner and outer parts of London. The paper concludes with a discussion of the role that London plays in the migration and urban systems of the United Kingdom as a whole. Key words: Scotland; Wales; London; migrants.
