===== Definition ===== 

Minority-majority segregation refers to the spatial separation of racial and ethnic minority groups from the dominant or majority population. It occurs when minority populations predominantly live in separate neighborhoods, communities, or regions, separate from the majority population.

This form of segregation can occur due to a variety of factors, including socioeconomic disparities, institutional discrimination, historical patterns of housing and zoning policies, and personal preferences for living among individuals of the same racial or ethnic background. It can lead to unequal access to resources and opportunities, such as quality education, healthcare, employment, and social networks.

Minority-majority segregation can contribute to the perpetuation of racial and ethnic inequalities by reinforcing social and economic disparities between different groups. It can also contribute to the formation of social and cultural enclaves, where individuals have limited interaction with people from different backgrounds, potentially leading to a limited understanding and appreciation of diversity.

Efforts to address minority-majority segregation often involve policies and initiatives aimed at promoting fair housing practices, combating discrimination, improving access to affordable housing, and fostering inclusive communities. These efforts aim to create more equitable and integrated neighborhoods and communities that allow for greater social and economic opportunities for all residents, regardless of their racial or ethnic background.
