Long read but good:

Basically, black families--even those with good salaries-- are more likely to live in poorer, more crime-ridden neighborhoods because they feel more comfortable around their own kind. The article points out a family that lived in a white neighborhood and then moved out because of police profiling and distrust from the neighbors.
If you had all the money you could ever need, would you rather live in the hood or in Beverly Hills?
