Segregation

One of the more shocking things moving to Southern California was just how segregated it was. My noting of this probably had something to do with the fact I lived in an almost entirely Hispanic area while working in an almost entirely Asian area. There were also Black and Indian parts of town only a short drive away. Within a very short distance the demographics flip. One minute you are in an expensive part of town, the next you are in a run down part of town.

Anyways, here is an interesting article on the topic I ran into.
