Definition[edit | edit source]
Spatial segregation in America refers to the physical separation of different racial or ethnic groups in urban areas. This segregation has historically been enforced through discriminatory housing policies, such as redlining, restrictive covenants, and exclusionary zoning practices.
These policies have contributed to the creation of predominantly white neighborhoods and predominantly minority neighborhoods, often resulting in stark disparities in economic opportunity, educational attainment, and overall quality of life.
While overtly discriminatory practices are now illegal, the legacy of spatial segregation continues to impact communities across the United States. Many neighborhoods remain racially segregated, perpetuating inequalities and limiting social mobility for minority populations.
Efforts to address spatial segregation include fair housing laws, affordable housing initiatives, and community development programs aimed at promoting diversity and inclusivity in neighborhoods. However, the entrenched nature of segregation in American society makes these challenges difficult to overcome.
