Urban Socioeconomic Inequality

Urban socioeconomic inequality refers to the disparities in income, wealth, and access to resources within urban areas. This can manifest through differences in housing quality, education, healthcare, and job opportunities among various neighborhoods or social groups. Factors such as race, class, and location play significant roles in creating these inequalities. In urban economic geography, understanding these patterns helps identify how cities develop and how policies can address the needs of disadvantaged populations, ultimately aiming for more equitable urban environments.
