Hispanics, Hispanics and Blacks, Blacks and Asians, Asians and Blacks, Blacks and<br />
Whites, Whites and Blacks, and so on. In order to manage this complexity and also to<br />
make the greatest sense <strong>of</strong> the data, we have paired the charts displaying trends in the<br />
Exposure Index by the two underlying “perspectives” implied by the asymmetric pairs.<br />
We call these two perspectives “Neighbors” and “Settlers.”<br />
Example: “White Neighbors” (Asks: what is the probability that Whites, Blacks,<br />
Hispanics, and Asians will have White neighbors?)<br />
Whites<br />
Blacks<br />
Latinos Whites ?<br />
Asians<br />
Example: “White Settlers” (Asks: what is the probability that Whites will have<br />
Whites, Blacks, Latinos, and Asians as neighbors?)<br />
Whites<br />
Whites ?<br />
Blacks ?<br />
Latinos ?<br />
Asians ?<br />
We have also taken care to explain our findings in straightforward, intuitive terms. Each<br />
chart is accompanied with an explanation <strong>of</strong> the trends represented in it.<br />
