The long-term centralized resettlement of returnees spells estrangement from the local people, and intermarriage only takes place between returnees and returnee offspring whether in the farm or the factory. There is even less possibility of choice where employment is concerned, and for the most part they go the rounds of the returnee affiliated enterprises. Furthermore, the children of those thus employed because of their youth and high spirits often quarrel with the locals.
說起來，難僑長期集中安置，和本地人隔閡，使得他們嫁娶通婚，都習慣向「兄弟農場（或工廠）」中去找對象；就業更是少有選擇，多半只能在僑屬企業中打轉；甚至年輕氣盛的難僑子女在僑屬企業中，和本地員工打架不睦的事件，也不時發生。
