Abstract
Census data indicate that West Indians in the United States are occupationally more successful than West Indians in Britain. Three factors may help to explain this situation: the history of West Indian migration to Britain and the United States; the occupational background of the migrants; and the structure of race relations in the two receiving areas. Comparing West Indians’ occupational achievements in the United States and Britain may also help to explain why West Indians in New York are more successful than black Americans.
