American residential segregation refers to the division of neighborhoods and communities along racial and ethnic lines. This segregation is often a result of institutionalized discrimination, such as redlining, which restricted African Americans and other minority groups from living in certain neighborhoods.
Residential segregation has lasting impacts on social and economic disparities, as minority communities are often disadvantaged in terms of access to quality education, healthcare, and employment opportunities. It also perpetuates racial and ethnic tensions and perpetuates inequalities in housing and wealth.
Efforts to address residential segregation in the United States have included fair housing laws, efforts to desegregate schools, and initiatives to promote diversity and inclusion in communities. However, segregation remains a significant challenge in many cities and regions across the country.
