Definition

Metropolitan income segregation refers to the unequal distribution of income levels among different neighborhoods or areas within a metropolitan area. This can result in certain neighborhoods being predominantly made up of either high-income or low-income residents, leading to socioeconomic disparities and limited opportunities for upward mobility for individuals residing in low-income areas. Income segregation can also impact access to quality education, healthcare, and other essential services, creating a cycle of poverty and inequality within the metropolitan area. Efforts to address income segregation may involve policies that promote affordable housing, transportation options, and economic development in order to create more inclusive and equitable communities.
