Skillnader i etnisk bakgrund mellan boende

That describes ethnic segregation. Socioeconomic here refers to factors such as income and education.

Separation by age is a different form of segregation from socioeconomic separation.

Skillnader mellan kommuners administrativa gränser

Municipal boundaries describe administrative divisions, not in themselves separation by economic circumstances.
