    • Abstract:
      The article presents information on racial discrimination prevalent in the neighborhoods in the U.S. Although most white Americans now endorse open housing in principle, they remain reluctant to share neighborhoods with a high number of Afro-American residents. In metropolitan areas where blacks constitute a small share of the total population, they don't have to. For example, if Afro-Americans constitute 5 percent of the overall population, complete desegregation can occur and each neighborhood will be only 5 percent Afro-American.
