Since the 1960s, a number of laws have been passed to promote integration between blacks and whites; however, the high levels of segregation have been slow to decline. Many attribute the continued high levels of segregation to differences in income between blacks and whites, but what happens when both races are making equal amounts of money. This book analyzes the residential distribution of middle-class African American households in the Pittsburgh Metropolitan Area to determine if the middle class status affords blacks greater integration with the dominant white group.
