Describe the distribution of international migrants across the uk

  • Over 3 million immigrants arrived in the UK between the 1940s and the 1970s due to high unemployment in places like in the Caribbean or violence and conflict like in Pakistan

  • The majority of migrants settled in major cities with plenty of job opportunities, such as London, Birmingham and Manchester

  • The wages were poor, so immigrants could only afford accommodation in the most deprived inner-city areas

  • This residential pattern still exists as families (second-generation migrants) tend to live near the first-generation migrants

  • The influx of non-white migrants into cities led to rising hostility from the white-working class population, resulting in rioting e.g. the 1958 Notting Hill riots
