ABSTRACT
Data for this research will be analyzed for five different racial/ethnic categories: Blacks, Latinos and three (3) Latino sub-groups (Mexican, Puerto Rican and Cuban). Since metropolitan areas with small racial/ethnic populations skew the data, population minimums were set at 5,000 for Latinos and Blacks at the metropolitan level; 2,000 for Latino sub-groups at the metropolitan level; for Latinos and Blacks at the suburban and central city level: and 1,000 for Latino sub-groups at the suburban and central city level.
