===== Date and country of first publication<ref>Date and country of first publication as informed by the Scopus database (December 2023).</ref>===== 1984<br> United States ===== Definition ===== Urban racial segregation refers to the pattern of racial groups living in separate residential areas within a city. It is the separation of different racial and ethnic communities, resulting in distinct neighborhoods characterized by their racial composition. There are several causes and consequences of urban racial segregation. Historical racial discrimination, redlining, and restrictive housing policies have contributed to the creation and perpetuation of segregated neighborhoods. Economic disparities, educational inequalities, and social factors have also played a significant role. Racially segregated neighborhoods often face issues such as concentrated poverty, limited access to resources and opportunities, lower-quality housing, inadequate public services, and higher crime rates. This can result in a cycle of disadvantage and perpetuate racial inequalities. Efforts to reduce urban racial segregation involve various strategies, such as fair housing policies, affordable housing initiatives, the promotion of inclusive neighborhood planning, and community development programs. Additionally, fostering diverse and inclusive communities through education, economic opportunities, and social integration is crucial for addressing this issue. ==See also== ==Related segregation forms== Urban racial segregation is frequently discussed in the literature with the following segregation forms: [[racial segregation]], [[residential segregation]], [[urban segregation]], [[social segregation]], [[ethnic segregation]], [[tract segregation]], [[racial residential segregation]], [[spatial racial segregation]] [[File:urban_racial_segregation.png|780x780px]] This visualization is based on the study [[Segregation_Wiki:About| The Multidisciplinary Landscape of Segregation Research]].
