This is a case study in Erenhot City, Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region on Mongolian ecological immigrants’ linguistic and cultural adaptation as well as the cultural psychology and related identity issues according to the attitudes towards residence patterns, marriage, language, culture and other variables. Based on the data analysis, the study puts forward the suggestions of the current work with regard to ethnic groups. To solve the problems of the immigrants’ adaptation, the vital method is the economic and social development, including improving the system of urban social security, raising the quality of ethnic education and vocational training, increasing the intensity of culture projects, and enriching the cultural life of border cities to satisfy the spiritual and cultural needs of ecological migration. Proper handling the relationship between language and culture makes a significant contribution to the consolidation and development of the harmonious ethnic relationship.
