The Middle-Income Negro Family Faces Urban Renewal
It is concluded that while there is not completely free choice, there is considerable housing for sale without discrimination in and around Boston. Rental housing is less likely to be available to the Negro family and informal discriminatory practices do prevail in the rental market outside of Roxbury. Although many of these houses and apartments would require the expenditure of a greater proportion of income than the families we studied typically are paying and could afford for their current place of residence, most of them could obtain housing outside, particularly if they chose to buy. Everything pointed to an exodus from the ghetto into the till-now white parts of Boston.
