How it works…

When you move tables to a new schema, all the indexes, triggers, and rules defined on those tables will also be moved to the new schema. If you've used a SERIAL data type and an implicit sequence has been created, then that also moves to the new schema. Schemas are purely an administrative concept and they do not affect the location of the table's data files. Tablespaces don't work this way, as we will see in later recipes.

Databases, users/roles, languages, and conversions don't exist in a schema. Schemas exist in a particular database. Schemas don't exist within schemas; they are not arranged in a tree or hierarchy. More details can be found in the Using multiple schemas recipe in Chapter 4, Server Control.
