===== Definition ===== 

District segregation refers to the division of a city or region into separate neighborhoods or districts based on race, ethnicity, income level, or other social factors. This segregation can occur through various mechanisms, such as discriminatory housing practices, racial and economic disparities, or zoning policies.

District segregation can have significant implications for the residents of these neighborhoods. It can lead to disparities in access to resources and opportunities, such as quality education, healthcare, employment, and public services. Segregated districts often have higher levels of crime, poverty, and limited social mobility.

The historical roots of district segregation can be traced back to discriminatory practices such as redlining, which designated certain areas as "hazardous" or "undesirable" for investment based on racial composition. These practices have contributed to the perpetuation of racial and economic inequalities in many cities.

Efforts to address district segregation include legal protections against housing discrimination, affordable housing initiatives, and policies that promote neighborhood diversity and inclusion. Some cities have also implemented programs to revitalize disadvantaged neighborhoods and promote economic opportunities. However, despite these efforts, district segregation remains a persistent issue in many cities around the world.
