Definition
{NoteAI} Commercial segregation is the practice of separating businesses and commercial establishments based on race, ethnicity, or socioeconomic status. This practice can result in certain communities having limited access to certain businesses or services based on their demographic characteristics. Commercial segregation can be driven by various factors, including discriminatory practices, economic disparities, and historical patterns of development. It can contribute to inequality and reinforce social divisions within a community. Efforts to address commercial segregation often involve initiatives to promote equal access to commercial opportunities and foster inclusive and diverse business environments.
