| Abstract | The cumulative adverse impact of residential white flight from large central cities on the residual population has led policy makers to be wary of instituting programs which will further exacerbate the process. Recent policy debates have evolved over the question of whether white city-to-suburb movement is affected more significantly by racially-motivated causes on the one hand, or by the general economic and ecological conditions in the city on the other. The present study assesses a number of previously suggested racial and nonracial factors for 1965 as "pushes" and "pulls" to 70 white city-to-suburb movement streams in 39 standard metropolitan areas. Utilizing a two-stage model of mobility, this analysis suggests that most factors, both racial and nonracial affect white flight less through the decision to move, than through the choice of destination. Fiscal and ecological features of the metropolitan area are demonstrated to be just as important as racial factors in the explanation. Finally, a path model is constructed which shows that the greater level of flight exhibited in Southern cities is only marginally explained by racial causes. (Author/AM) |
