This report describes a data set generated from the harmonization and spatial processing of official census statistics collected from National Statistical Institutes in 8 EU Member States (France, Germany, Ireland, Italy, Netherlands, Portugal, Spain and UK).
The dataset provides a map at high spatial resolution of the population with migrant background in these Member States.
The uniqueness of the data set resides both the high level of spatial resolution (cells of 100 by 100 m) and the large geographical coverage which is including almost 45 thousand local administrative units.
From this data set it is possible to calculate indicators of concentration of migrants, diversity and spatial residential segregation which can support comparative research and policies on the local aspect of the integration of migrants in the EU.JRC.E.6-Demography, Migration and Governanc
