Abstract Contemporarily, there are lots of space imbalances and single allocation of public resources in domestic urban mixed-neighborhoods.Whether there is social segregation in the mixed-area has become an important issue.The general thoughts and concrete contents of our study is that:1) Suppose there is the existence of social segregation between the two groups with different properties of household registration,therefor to make a detection of the significance of social segregation,thus confirming the assumption is tenable. 2) By detecting the correlation between the household registration properties and the social segregation to further validate the assumption. 3) Researching on social network of social groups (Man-Man Communication), and transforming the social networks of social groups(Man-Object Interaction) into the trajectory of the space activities (Man-Man Interaction), we could directly measure the degree of social segregation.The Man-Object Our study found that:1) The social communication objects of migrants in Kecun area mostly live in their hometown. 2) It shows significant differences between the two groups on their spatial behavior,which confirms the existence of the social segregation. 3) From the measured results of the Present index,we infer it would be the discrete spatial behavior that causes the migrants lost the support from the social network.
