The New Yorkistan cover of The New Yorker spoofs urban America's tendency to huddle into cultural or ethnic enclaves— although many of New York's neighborhoods are in fact well-integrated.

This is a list of ethnic enclaves in North American cities.

The term ethnic enclave when used in the context of North American cities, has a slightly different meaning than it does when used elsewhere. The formal use of enclave implies a community or population that is essentially trapped within walls and completely surrounded by an unfriendly population or government.

European enclaves are somewhat more common in the North and East; Asian enclaves are somewhat more common in the West.
