ABSTRACT
Housing discrimination and segregated living patterns did not simply limit housing choices for vulnerable populations. These housing policies and practices had serious consequences for their victims by limiting their educational options, access to jobs, availability of health care, and virtually all amenities available to more privileged populations. Enactment of the law also did not simply create more housing opportunities. It also created educational and job opportunities, access to safer streets, and exposure to cleaner environments, along with opportunities to secure many other public and private goods and services.
