I’m trying to figure out the ethics of engineering where new migrants settle, in order to avoid enclaves. It’s a recipe for local resentments, but I understand the draw of migrants preferring familiarity of cultural fellow travelers.

Ever since the US began new immigrants tended to settle near people who were like them. It's only human to want to be around people you feel some familiarity with. A couple of generations later, the groups are more dispersed.
Yep, definitely true. And local resentment is historically the same. The difference now, at least to my mind, is that local politics has become national politics, and we stand to lose a lot more due to local resentment.
