Spatial Mismatch A Consequence of Segregation? Population Trends and Policies

14. Residential and employment spatial patterns contribute to the employment disadvantage experienced by blacks in metropolitan areas.Residential and employment spatial patterns contribute to the employment disadvantage experienced by blacks in metropolitan areas. Discrimination in the residential real estate market and other factors resulting in segregation are precursors to spatial mismatch.Discrimination in the residential real estate market and other factors resulting in segregation are precursors to spatial mismatch. Discrimination may be a motivating factor in firm location decisions (i.e. access to a predominantly white work force) resulting in spatial mismatch.Discrimination may be a motivating factor in firm location decisions (i.e. access to a predominantly white work force) resulting in spatial mismatch.

During the 1990s, blacks’ overall proximity to jobs improved slightly, narrowing the gap in “spatial mismatch” between blacks and whites by 13 percent.During the 1990s, blacks’ overall proximity to jobs improved slightly, narrowing the gap in “spatial mismatch” between blacks and whites by 13 percent. Metro areas with higher levels of black-white residential segregation exhibit a higher degree of spatial mismatch between blacks and jobs.Metro areas with higher levels of black-white residential segregation exhibit a higher degree of spatial mismatch between blacks and jobs. The residential movement of black households within metropolitan areas drove most of the overall decline in spatial mismatch for blacks in the 1990s.The residential movement of black households within metropolitan areas drove most of the overall decline in spatial mismatch for blacks in the 1990s.

19. Blacks residing in metropolitan areas in the Northeast and Midwest were the most physically isolated from employment opportunities.Blacks residing in metropolitan areas in the Northeast and Midwest were the most physically isolated from employment opportunities. Blacks residing in the South were the least isolated.Blacks residing in the South were the least isolated. While average mismatch indices declined in all areas, the declines were smallest in the Northeast.While average mismatch indices declined in all areas, the declines were smallest in the Northeast. Midwestern metro areas, which had exhibited the highest average degree of mismatch between blacks and jobs in 1990, experienced a comparatively large decline in overall mismatch during the decade.Midwestern metro areas, which had exhibited the highest average degree of mismatch between blacks and jobs in 1990, experienced a comparatively large decline in overall mismatch during the decade. The level of mismatch between blacks and jobs proved most severe in metros where a relatively large percentage of the population is black.The level of mismatch between blacks and jobs proved most severe in metros where a relatively large percentage of the population is black.

20. 1.Flip a coin two times and count the number of heads. If both your flips were heads then you are in the minority and you have no preference for neighborhood composition. 2.If you are in the majority, flip a coin five times and count the number of heads. This is the number of persons from another group that you are willing to live near. 3.Everyone flip a coin two times and count the number of heads. If both your flips were heads then you need to move to another neighborhood based on your preferences if you are majority. 4.Find a house (desk) in a neighborhood where you would like to live. If someone else would also like to live in that house, flip for it with heads winning and the loser moving on. 5.When everyone has settled in a new neighborhood, repeat steps 3 and 4.
