This Report provides new insights into some of the spatial relationships involved in both neighborhood mixing and regional inequality through an investigation of 381 metropolitan areas in the U.S. in 2010 using advanced measurement strategies and analysis methods.
The study uses a novel neighborhood unit—egohoods—to measure the degree of mixing that occurs within the neighborhoods of these metropolitan areas. It measures mixing based on income, occupational status, and educational achievement.
We compare the level of mixing on these three dimensions across all metropolitan areas in the U.S. in 2010.
Below is a map showing the level of income mixing in neighborhoods for each of the metropolitan areas in the U.S.
