Tigerpaw, so explain why in the 90's, African Americans saw household income grow at $1000 less than whites, while in the South the absolute income growth was basically the same? If you examine the numbers, at the beginning of the decade (1990), African Americans had a higher income in the South than the Midwest too.
Now, these numbers make sense, when you compare them to the Census Bureau's numbers on residential segregation, where the South is less segregated than the Midwest.

re:"My point was that the Midwest is in trouble and therefore I would expect many of the worst problems to be found there."
