[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Do all these pro-segregation posters actually live here? [/quote]

Can you point out a pro-segregation post?

Nobody is forcing anybody of any color to live anywhere.  [/quote]

Then why are the schools segregated? Because people can't live just anywhere.  Further, there are a number of historical factors that created this situation.

1) Restricting the majority all the low-income housing to a few areas
2) historical practices like red-lining
3) gerrymandering school boundaries to exclude low-income students or the reverse

I was surprised up front a lot of real estate people were about school boundaries and race while homeshopping.  They would mention inappropriate conduct of other realtors.  I think it made a difference that my agent was an immigrant.[/quote]

We have bought and sold a few times and I find the ‘immigrant’ realtors are way more up front about the student population and race.  They’re not as scared to be honest.  [/quote]
