Why do People want to segregate themselves? With this deal of segregation in America it has revealed that the patterns coming from residential areas in American cities determined to increase their desires of the wealthy and the well-educated white folks. And the reason for that is, is that they want to be around and live around people that are just like them, and once they pick a neighborhood to live in and begin to put population into it, it causes everybody else that has lower income and can't afford the price of their price of their current house to them have to move out of that neighborhood and go find another neighborhood with a house that they can afford.
The populations in every city that seem the most segregated are the ones that have the most money. People also segregate themselves by their education and occupation levels. Researchers Richard Florida and Charlotta Mellander studied that there are more than 70,000 Census tracts that make up most of America’s 350+ metros and they were able to determine which cities were highly segregated by their income, education and occupation levels.
