Residential Location, Journey to Work, and Black Earnings
Throughout the 1960's and 1970's housing market discrimination and labor force discrimination were fairly popular topics of study. This thesis attempts to combine the two fields of study by exploring the impact of segregation in housing on the labor market outcomes of the segregated groups. Specifically, we examine four large SMSA's to see if blacks who live and work in the central cities suffer an earnings disadvantage in comparison to blacks who live and work in the suburbs.
