🔹 Ethnolinguistic proximity and prior contact with refugees help reduce prejudice, emphasizing the importance of cross-group interactions.

🔹 However, refugees do not show the same prejudice toward hosts.
🔹 Interestingly, negative attitudes are strongest in areas with limited refugee worker presence—suggesting that perceived competition matters even in absence of actual labor market competition.

Key findings:
🔹 Host communities exhibit more negative attitudes toward refugees when they are perceived as direct job competitors.
