Abstract
⺠Nominally similar measures of ethnic density perform differently across health and racism measures in the US and England. ⺠Caribbean ethnic density was associated with improved health and decreased experienced racism in the US but not in England. ⺠Black ethnic density showed a trend for a protective effect on the health and racism in England, but not in the US. ⺠Findings reflect similarities in the racialised identities of Caribbean migrants to England and African Americans.
