Interbuilding vertical segregation refers to the separation of different social or economic classes within a single building or complex. This can manifest in various ways, such as having separate entrances or amenities for residents of different income levels, or physically separating affordable housing units from higher-end units within a building. This practice reinforces social inequalities and can contribute to the marginalization of certain groups within a community.
