WORKFORCE DEMOGRAPHICS Geographies of the Dance Workforce As is the case with the wider dance workforce, while the concentration of foreign-born workers studied is highest in Manhattan, the majority of foreign-born respondents (51% of nonprofit respondents and 62% of sponsored respondents) resides outside the borough. Notably, the share of respondents based in Queens is consistently higher for the foreign-born workforce than for the workforce born in the United States, in keeping with United States Census data on the wider population. These findings encourage place-based strategies for advancing foreign-born workers. GEOGRAPHIES OF THE DANCE WORKFORCE
