Demographic Preferences and Income Segregation
Abstract:
We investigate whether demographic preferences explain income segregation in shared spaces. To distinguish preferences over demographic composition from prefer- ences over other venue characteristics, we study venue choices within business chains. We find two notable regularities: racial homophily does not vary by income, and pref- erences for high-income co-patrons are similar across racial groups. These demographic preferences are economically large, explain much of the cross-group variation in expo- sure to high-income co-patrons, and correlate with movers’ neighborhood choices.
