===== Definition ===== Racial residential segregation refers to the separation of individuals of different races into different neighborhoods or residential areas. This phenomenon often occurs as a result of historical and systemic discrimination, as well as social and economic factors. Racial segregation in residential areas can have negative impacts on individuals and communities, including limited access to quality education, healthcare, employment opportunities, and socioeconomic resources. It can also contribute to the perpetuation of racial inequalities and disparities in society. Efforts to address racial residential segregation may include implementing fair housing policies, promoting inclusive and diverse neighborhoods, and addressing underlying factors such as poverty and discrimination. By creating more equitable and integrated communities, we can work towards a more just and inclusive society for all.
