===== Definition ===== 

Religious residential segregation refers to the separation of individuals or families based on their religious beliefs in housing and neighborhood settings. This can occur voluntarily as a result of individuals choosing to live in communities with others who share their religious beliefs, or it can be enforced through discriminatory practices by landlords, real estate agents, or homeowners' associations.

Religious residential segregation can have both positive and negative consequences. On one hand, individuals may feel a sense of belonging and community when they live in areas with others who share their beliefs, and they may have access to religious institutions, schools, and services that cater to their specific needs. However, this segregation can also lead to social isolation, lack of diversity, and potential discrimination against those who do not adhere to the dominant religious beliefs in the community.

Overall, religious residential segregation can contribute to the larger issue of social and cultural segregation, as individuals become increasingly isolated from those who are different from them and may not have opportunities to engage with people of diverse backgrounds and beliefs. This can perpetuate stereotypes, prejudice, and intolerance towards others who do not share the same religious beliefs. Promoting diversity, inclusion, and understanding in residential communities can help to address these issues and foster greater harmony among different religious groups.
