Segregation grows in Dutch towns
Many immigrants from non-western countries do not want to live in traditionally white parts of Dutch towns and cities because they are frightened of being frozen out, the government’s social policy unit SCP says in a new report.
And some 40% of native Dutch don’t want to live next door to an ethnic minority family, the SCP says.
The number of virtually segregated areas has gone up sharply, the SCP said.
