===== Definition ===== 

Childhood residential segregation refers to the phenomenon of children growing up in neighborhoods that are racially or socioeconomically segregated. This occurs when certain groups of people are concentrated in specific neighborhoods due to various factors such as historical patterns of discrimination, economic disparities, housing policies, and personal preferences.

Residential segregation in childhood can have significant long-term impacts on individuals' lives and opportunities. Children growing up in racially segregated neighborhoods often experience limited access to quality education, healthcare, and other resources. They may face higher levels of poverty and crime, which can negatively affect their overall well-being and future prospects.

Furthermore, residential segregation perpetuates social and economic inequality between different racial and ethnic groups. It can contribute to the persistence of racial disparities in income, education, employment, and health outcomes across generations.

Efforts to address childhood residential segregation involve a combination of housing policies, educational reforms, and community development initiatives. These measures aim to promote fair housing practices, increase access to affordable housing in diverse neighborhoods, and create opportunities for social and economic mobility for all children, regardless of their background.
