Definition
Metropolitan economic segregation refers to the unequal distribution of wealth and income among different neighborhoods or areas within a city or metropolitan area. This segregation can lead to disparities in access to resources such as quality schools, healthcare, employment opportunities, and public services.
Factors contributing to metropolitan economic segregation include historical patterns of housing discrimination, zoning policies that favor affluent neighborhoods, and limited affordable housing options in desirable areas.
The consequences of metropolitan economic segregation can include limited social mobility, increased crime rates in disadvantaged neighborhoods, and a lack of diversity and integration within communities. Efforts to address economic segregation may involve policies to increase affordable housing options, improve access to quality education and job opportunities, and promote inclusive development practices.
