Feature to pull in an ethnic community (9)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

chinatown

'ethnic community' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'feature to pull in an' is the wordplay.
'feature' becomes 'chin' (facial feature).
'to pull' becomes 'tow' (tow is a kind of pull).
'in' is an insertion indicator.
'tow' inserted within 'an' is 'atown'.
'chin'+'atown'='CHINATOWN'

(Other definitions for chinatown that I've seen before include "where Asians live" , "Oriental area of a city" , "Ethnic city quarter" , "film by Polanski" , "area dominated by Asian influences" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
