Definition

House price segregation refers to the phenomenon where certain neighborhoods or areas have consistently higher or lower house prices compared to others. This segregation can be driven by factors such as socioeconomic status, race, education levels, and access to amenities or services.

House price segregation can perpetuate and exacerbate existing inequalities, as those in lower-priced areas may have limited access to resources and opportunities available in higher-priced areas. It can also contribute to social and economic segregation, making it more difficult for individuals from different backgrounds to interact and build social connections.

Efforts to address house price segregation may involve policies to promote affordable housing, improve access to transportation and amenities, and address discriminatory practices in the real estate market. Additionally, promoting diversity and inclusion in housing developments can help to create more integrated and equitable communities.
