| Sumario: | A study was conducted to examine whether increased educational status and associated economic gains for black Americans have been translated into higher levels of residential integration in southern California. The results confirm the findings of some recent national investigations that demonstrated small decreases in the levels of separation for higher-status black Americans. Furthermore, the results strongly suggest that social class differences, calculated by education and income, are important for explaining degrees of separation and that when educational and economic gains do occur, these are translated into gains in residential integration.
