“…Four additional lower middle‐class neighbourhoods were found in the suburbs. By 2019, lower middle‐class neighbourhoods in the suburbs (14) outnumbered those in the city limits (4), suggesting suburbanization of poverty (Terbeck, 2021). In 1970, the City of Flint had two middle‐class neighbourhoods in the northwest corner of the city.…”

“…First, some of the low-income population in neighbourhoods undergoing gentrification in the central city were displaced and relocated to the older inner-ring suburbs where housing prices were lower (Rolheiser, 2021;Sarzynski & Vicino, 2019). Second, inner-ring suburbs, long the residence of manufacturing workers, experienced a substantial decline in median household income/median housing values and increases in poverty due to deindustrialization (Kneebone, 2017;Terbeck, 2021). Hanlon et al (2006) found in their study of suburbs in 13 metropolitan areas of the US between 1980 and 2000 that suburbs were not homogeneous in terms of racial/ethnic or economic characteristics and suggested that a new model of urban spatial structure was in order.…”

Michigan was an industrial powerhouse until the onset of deindustrialization in 1970. This paper compares socio‐economic and demographic changes at the neighbourhood level between 1970 and 2019 in two medium‐sized cities/counties in Michigan (Flint/Genesee County and Grand Rapids/Kent County) that underwent deindustrialization. Only 35% of neighbourhoods in the two counties were of the same class in 2019 as in 1970. Middle‐class neighbourhoods declined while poor and upper‐middle class neighbourhoods increased. The contemporary spatial structure of neighbourhoods in these two counties is a mixture of classic concentric ring/sectoral models interspersed with socio‐economic downgrading inner‐ring suburbs identified within other US cities since the 1990s.

It is well documented that US metropolitan areas have experienced significant spatial, economic, and demographic changes, with increasing minority and immigrant populations living in the suburbs. At the same time, immigrant-owned businesses have seen substantial growth over the years and play important roles in serving unmet markets, hiring workers, and generating local economic development. This chapter uses national business datasets to examine the spatial patterns of migrant entrepreneurship and the performance of employer firms as indicated by the number of firms, employees, sales and receipts, and total annual payrolls for cities and suburbs over time across a broad array of Metropolitan Statistical Areas (MSAs). Atlanta serves as a case study site for more detailed analysis on the dynamics of suburban ethnic economy. Policy recommendations to support these businesses and preserve ethnic identity in face of redevelopment efforts are discussed in the conclusion.

Do Socially Vulnerable Urban Populations Have Access to Walkable, Transit-Accessible Neighborhoods? A Nationwide Analysis of Large U.S. Metropolitan Areas

Walkable and transit-accessible neighborhoods that may offer residents numerous health, social, and economic benefits are, in many places, becoming increasingly exclusive. This equity-mapping analysis sought to determine whether socially vulnerable (SV) populations within America’s largest (pop. ≥ 500 k) metropolitan areas have equitable access to walkable and transit-accessible neighborhoods. The results suggest an equitable overlap between high-SV and highly walkable neighborhoods in many cities, yet there was significant variability in both the availability and equity in accessibility of these neighborhoods to SV populations. Concerningly, high-SV populations living in more walkable neighborhoods are also likely to contend with higher levels of personal crime (i.e., homicide, rape, robbery, assault), poorer-performing schools, and lower transit accessibility. While the primary challenge in some cities, including many in the South and Southeast, is a general lack of walkable and transit-accessible neighborhoods, in others a dearth of affordable housing is likely the main barrier to ensuring broad and equitable accessibility.
