Moran, Peter William – History of Education Quarterly, 2019
This article examines the impact of African American migration into Kansas City, Missouri, on the city's segregated school system in the 1940s and early 1950s. Substantial increases in the number of African American elementary school-age children produced chronic overcrowding in the segregated black schools, which was not easily relieved due to…

Wells, Amy Stuart – National Education Policy Center, 2015
This policy brief provides a review of the social science evidence on the housing-school nexus, highlighting the problem of reoccurring racial segregation and inequality absent strong, proactive federal or state integration policies. Three areas of research are covered: (a) the nature of the housing-school nexus; (b) the impact of school…

Lichter, Daniel T.; Johnson, Kenneth M. – Rural Sociology, 2006
This paper analyzes geographic patterns of population concentration and deconcentration among the foreign-born population during the 1990-2000 period. A goal is to examine whether the foreign-born population, including recent arrivals, are dispersing geographically from metro gateway cities into rural and other less densely populated parts of the…

Sly, David F.; Pol, Louis G. – Social Forces, 1978
The data presented in this article suggest that recent migration patterns are contributing much less to white flight than has been suggested by many previous investigators. Differences in segregation between cities are more closely related to birth rate differentials than they are to white flight. (Author/AM)

Becker, Henry Jay – 1979
It is widely believed that neighborhoods that are substantially racially integrated will resegregate, becoming overwhelmingly black over a few years. This belief follows from the assumption that few white families will move into a racially mixed neighborhood. Using data from the Neighborhood Characteristics File of the 1970 Census, Mid-Atlantic…

Taeuber, Karl E. – Annals of the American Academy of Political and Social Science, 1975
Demographic data since 1970 indicate a reversal of the centuries-long process of increasing metropolitan concentration and a sharp diminution in the flow of black migrants to large cities. To date, there is no evidence of sharp shifts in the residential isolation of blacks. (Author/AM)

Kantrowitz, Nathan – 1976
This essay addressed the question of to what extent does school segregation and school desegregation policy shape residential segregation. Census data, ethnic segregation, voluntary self-segregation, and attitude surveys are discussed in the residential segregation section. The Wolf and Lebeaux study is critically appraised in reference to school…

Fielding, Elaine L. – 1990
The 1980 United States Census showed a marked acceleration in the suburbanization of blacks during the 1970s. This study analyzes statistical data from the 1985 American Housing Survey (AHS) National and Metropolitan Files to determine if that pattern of acceleration continued in the 1980s. These sets of data also permitted racial and…

Darden, Joe T. – 1976
The results of research designed to measure black residential segregation outside the central cities (i.e., the suburbs) of ten areas of Michigan are reported. The census data suggest that while substantial migration of blacks into the suburbs occurred in several areas of Michigan during the 1960's, the suburban black population numbers remained…

Quillian, Lincoln – American Journal of Sociology, 1999
Examines why the number of high-poverty neighborhoods in U.S. cities has increased since 1970 by using geocoded data from the Panel Study of Income Dynamics. Suggests that migration of the non-poor from the poor played a key role in forming new poor urban neighborhoods during the 1970s and 1980s. (CMK)

Jones, Jacquie – African American Review, 1993
Reviews two films dealing with the Black south. Julie Dash's 1992 film "Daughters of the Dust" offers a historical moment in African-American culture concentrating on African-American women. Charles Burnett's 1991 film "To Sleep with Anger," which is set in the Los Angeles (California) of early southern migrants, also…

Tolnay, Stewart E.; Crowder, Kyle D.; Adelman, Robert M. – Social Forces, 2000
Analysis of the 1970 Neighborhood Characteristics Public Use Microdata Sample indicates that recent (1965-70) southern Black migrants to the North resided in the "best" neighborhoods (less poverty, segregation, and family instability), while earlier Black migrants lived in the worst neighborhoods. Recent migrants also received the…

Frey, William H. – 1977
This paper investigates the recent pace of metropolitan-wide integration as it is related to the demographic processes of residential mobility and migration. It also examines the prospects for future changes in this pace. These changes could create a substantial "opening" of the suburbs for blacks. The findings of the study suggest that…

Logan, John R.; Schneider, Mark – American Journal of Sociology, 1984
Black migration to American suburbs accelerated from 1970-80, increasing the proportion of Blacks in suburbs throughout the United States. In the North Blacks moved disproportionately into communities with high Black concentrations, while in the South, many Black suburbs experienced an influx of white residents. (Author/IS)

Taeuber, Karl E. – 1974
In this retrospective review of demographic aspects of race and the metropolis, presented as a basis from which to speculate about the 1970's, the period of mass migration of blacks out of the rural South is seen as drawing to a close. The U.S. black population is more urban and more metropolitan than the white population. The development of black…
