Explaining Racial Differences: A Study of City-to Suburb Residential Mobility.

Goodman, John L., Jr.; Streitwieser, Mary L.

Urban Affairs Quarterly, v18 n3 p301-25 Mar 1983

Frey's analysis of White city-to-suburbs movement was replicated using 1974-76 data on Black outmovement. Results indicated that low outmovement by Blacks (attributed to actual or anticipated racial discrimination against them) better explained the higher rates of outmovement by Whites than did Black-White socioeconomic differences or White flight.
