Fun fact: one of the most famous segregated neighborhoods still has a landmark that people come from all over the world to see. It was called Hollywoodland and had a big sign in the hills to promote it because the San Fernando valley was becoming more integrated so a neighborhood for whites only was made on the other side of the hill. The Hollywood sign is the remnants of that legacy.

So the places where they popped up were Britain , the US , , Canada and ofc , South Africa during apartheid.

Since , you know , the seller doesn't own the house anymore :)))

Public transport is underfunded which affects city dwellers. Traffic from the suburbs also affects city dwellers because parking is valued more than housing in a city which further drives prices of living up for people who couldn't afford to move out. And so on. the fact that suburbs are so common is a design failure.

AND classism. Snooty, snobby elites wanted to get rid of the poor (which sadly many African Americans were and still are a part of), so they bulldozed those areas (even majority white ones, in some places) and built the Interstates so they could drive straight to their comfy, luxurious suburbs or between rich city areas without driving by any stinky "peasants" (aka working class folks). The Interstates were weaponized against small town America and working class city folks alike. And unlike racism, America as a country has hardly even BEGUN to address or simply acknowledge the rampant systemic classism, against poorer whites and blacks alike.

Of course, there were also unscrupulous real estate agents who would “show” houses on a street to people of color on a weekend day, so that everyone living there saw it, and then put their cards in every mailbox on Monday to see how many people would call asking to sell before the block “went bad.” It’s a shame more people weren’t like my dad.

I don't think it's about not wanting young people in your neighborhood. Okay, some people hate having kids around, but I doubt it's the majority. And old men usually enjoy the view more when it's peppered with young women (please don't hate on me, it is like it is). I think the real issue is that old folks owns their houses. Therefore they're interested in their property increasing in value and hence oppose every measure that would not support that. But since young folks are usually less wealthy when compared to older house owners, they fail to buy into these neighborhoods.

The affluent now are moving back into the cities, especially those urban areas where socioeconomic inequalities have historically flourished. The rich have also expanded into rural areas near metropolitan centers. My ongoing nightmare is the reality that I will have to move out of the city and into the suburbs.

Suburban System overall is the stupidest system to House middle-income population. City planners should never fully segregate Residential and Commercial area. Human are social creatures and not individualist robots. Your Daily necessities (Grocery, medicine etc.) should not be longer than 5-8 minutes of walk from your home. Tightly pack your houses, throw some shops.. or let house owners to build a shop on their property. Also it (Suburban) is an inefficient usage of land. Land that could be left unused for nature, or used for more housing plots, or for commerce area, or maybe a park...

This is why I speak so badly about Houston's lack of zoning laws. I had a classmate who lived in a decent neighborhood, and her family was one of the remaining few people of color who lived in that area because gentrification pushed everyone else out. All to make way for a condo for upper middle class and upper class people. How can Silvester Turner support this sort of project development (gentrification also happens when building or expanding highways/freeways) when the people he's supposed to represent are pushed out into shittier conditions? Yeah, sure, it gives more money to the city for development (gentrification and lack of zoning laws allow big companies to establish a location wherever they see fit), but I'm sure none of it is used to actually improve areas that desperately need repairs. That's how we end up with a population of lower income people and people of color who live in areas prone to flooding and without the protection against flooding. It's what causes so many families to be displaced because insurance isn't cheap and because they can't afford to go anywhere else.

Its no secret that the suburbs lack biodiversity and habitats for wildlife, look at how many houses there are now. can you imagine all the forests and grasslands lost to development of cities and towns?

I bet if those folks back then had their DNA done, they would have found out that most of them were "other than Caucasian." At least partly.

That's horrible. I knew there was steering, and oppression, and pushing out, and land grabbing and murder - but I didn't know about this. It makes me sick to think that people thought this was OK.

This is the second time we have purchased a home in the suburbs and it is very white where I live.

Yeah. Pretty sure I saw a "Whites only" in a description for a house for sale up here in Northern California about a year ago. Wasn't even looking to buy a house, just wanted to see what the town I live in has to offer. Nothing much for people who look like me, I see.

I wish the title used 'american suburbs' instead
