1. Residential segregation

   Residential segregation is the physical separation of two or more groups into different neighborhoods, or a form of segregation that "sorts population groups into various neighborhood contexts and shapes the living environment at the neighborhood level." While it has traditionally been associated with racial segregation, it generally refers to any kind of sorting based on some criteria populations. While overt segregation is illegal in the United States, housing patterns show significant and persistent segregation for certain races and income groups. The history of American social and public policies, like Jim Crow laws and Federal Housing Administration's early redlining policies, set the tone for segregation in housing. Trends in residential segregation are attributed to suburbanization, discrimination, and personal preferences. Residential segregation produces negative socioeconomic outcomes for minority groups. Public policies for housing attempt to promote integration and mitigate these negative effects.

   ( In South Florida) the problem with white Democrats is they tend to live near white Republicans, sometimes in the same house, so unless you're gerrymandering down somebody's bed... South Florida's really hard to gerrymander white Democrats when there aren't that many of them, south Florida's much more efficient because of residential segregation to target communities of color. And so you really can't politically gerrymander in South Florida without targeting communities of color, which gets you right into race based claims.

3. Stephen Menendian:
