Abstract
Increased reliance on alcohol and problem drinking is frequently reported for immigrants of minority group status who move to urban areas. However, for recent migrants from the Dominican Republic, alcohol consumption is lower and drinking problems are fewer due to increased economic opportunity and an emerging morality that disparages heavy drinking and reinforces economic incentives.Keywords
