    In 2010, the United States Census Bureau recorded the characteristics of each household in specified city blocks; as a result, the index of dissimilarity was calculated using these census tracts. By utilizing the dissimilarity formula, the index of dissimilarity between these two racial groups in Atlanta was approximately 0.797. The high value of this statistic indicates a general absence of non-Hispanic white people in city blocks with a majority of non-Hispanic black people, and vice-versa. Ideally, the separation of these races between the city blocks, as indicated by the dissimilarity statistic, reveals a high amount of segregation between the non-Hispanic white population and non-Hispanic black population in…

Housing costs have increased in cities across the U.S., and the percentage of income required to pay for housing has increased as well. The force of gentrification (for neighborhoods that have yet to experience it fully) can also lead to increased concentrations of poverty in low-income neighborhoods. This has produced dilapidation in urban areas that is similar to what occurred in 1950-60’s…

S. residents to determine national opinion on a wide variety of issues. An individual is a person; the population is all adult U.S. residents. (b) The 2000 census tried to gather basic information from every household in the United States.
