===== Date and country of first publication<ref>Date and country of first publication as informed by the Scopus database (December 2023).</ref>===== 1988<br> South Africa ===== Definition ===== White residential segregation refers to the spatial separation of white individuals from individuals of other racial or ethnic groups within residential areas. This phenomenon historically occurred as a result of discriminatory practices such as redlining, racial zoning, and restrictive covenants that prevented people of color, particularly African Americans, from purchasing or renting homes in predominantly white neighborhoods. White residential segregation is often perpetuated by various factors, including social, economic, and institutional factors. These can include racial preference in housing choices, fear or prejudice against individuals of other racial or ethnic backgrounds, and unequal access to resources and opportunities for individuals of color. The consequences of white residential segregation are wide-ranging. It can lead to the concentration of poverty and limited access to quality education, healthcare, and other essential services for communities of color. It also contributes to the perpetuation of racial inequalities and disparities in wealth, employment, and educational attainment. Efforts to address white residential segregation include fair housing laws, desegregation policies, and community development initiatives aimed at promoting diversity and inclusion. However, white residential segregation remains a persistent issue in many parts of the world, highlighting the need for continued efforts to promote racial equity and ensure equitable access to housing opportunities for all individuals, regardless of race or ethnicity. ==See also== ==Related segregation forms== White residential segregation is frequently discussed in the literature with the following segregation forms: [[residential segregation]], [[racial segregation]], [[social segregation]], [[racial residential segregation]], [[american residential segregation]], [[black white segregation]], [[urban segregation]], [[spatial segregation]], [[black residential segregation]], [[economic segregation]], [[income segregation]], [[enforced residential segregation]] [[File:white_residential_segregation.png|780x780px]] This visualization is based on the study [[Segregation_Wiki:About| The Multidisciplinary Landscape of Segregation Research]].
