Smith, Richard A. – Urban Affairs Quarterly, 1991
Examines data taken from a 109-city sample to describe patterns of racial change in the context of segregation decline between 1970 and 1980. Integration occurred more through decline in the proportion of Black residents in areas defined as mostly Black (deconcentration) than through Blacks moving into mostly White neighborhoods (integration).…

Stahura, John M. – Urban Affairs Quarterly, 1988
The increase in Black suburbanization during the 1960s and 70s is examined in the context of racial changes in earlier decades. A sample of 1,114 suburbs are examined, and regional differences between the North and South are described. Racial change occurred with greater relative frequency than in previous decades.

Winsberg, Morton D. – Urban Affairs Quarterly, 1983
During the 1970s, most Black population growth in ten Florida cities occurred in White census tracts contiguous to tracts that were at least half-Black in 1970. Urban renewal and new public housing were influential in reducing the percentage of the Black population living in Black tracts. (Author/MJL)

The central city pattern of racial change is predominantly one of a growing percentage of Blacks and a lowering percentage of Whites. In contrast, the numbers of both Blacks and Whites have been growing in suburbs with significant Black and White populations. (Author/RLV)

Metropolitan development is not simply a result of ecological factors. Governmental organization affects the incentives of localities and helps determine patterns of growth. This study updates previous studies on factors influencing residential area income inequality. Modification of the variables in the ecological explanation will increase…

Clay, Phillip I. – Urban Affairs Quarterly, 1979
The Black suburbanization that is occurring represents more of a resegregation of Blacks in particular sectors of suburbia than dispersal in an open housing market. (Author/RLV)

Galster, George C.; Keeney, W. Mark – Urban Affairs Quarterly, 1988
A cross-sectional simultaneous equation model is specified whereby metropolitan-wide levels of racial residential segregation, housing discrimination, interracial occupational dissimilarities, and Black/White mean incomes are endogenous. Results support the hypothesis of mutually causal interrelationships among these phenomena. Results of policy…
