Tips

usage
聚居区 typically labels a geographic area where a particular ethnic, religious, or national group is concentrated — minority enclaves, immigrant neighborhoods. Compare to 居住区 (jūzhùqū, generic residential area) which has no group connotation.
memory
(gather) + (reside) + (area) = 'gather-reside area.' Each character contributes a piece: who, what they do there, what kind of place.
